Midas

Heat underneath everything burnin' up my blood
Still hard to breathe, filigree coverin' my lungs
If I'm a fool, then at least I'll be a good one
Glitter in the streets, all over me, on my tongue

What I touch (touch), what I love (love)
Would you turn to gold and fade to dust? (fade to dust, fade to dust)
Make my hands (hands), a gilded cage (cage)
Hold it close, but nothing gold can stay

Midas
Everything that I touch, Midas
Holding on, holding on
Everything that I touch, Midas

Shiny things follow me
I drag 'em down to the depths of my reverie
And for a moment, before it's broken
Their heart beats pure devotion
Suffocate with subtlety
Bring it to my lips like it's some kind of offering
Should've written the warning on my skin

What I touch (touch), what I love (love)
Would you turn to gold and fade to dust? (fade to dust, fade to dust)
Make my hands (hands), a gilded cage (cage)
Hold it close, but nothing gold can stay

Midas
Holding on, holding on
Everything that I touch, Midas
Holding on, holding on
Everything that I touch, Midas
