Kingdom of Dust
You built your kingdom with gold and stone
But the walls are thin, and you're all alone
Fortunes fade, but the graves stay wide
You can't outrun what you're tryin' to hide
You count your silver, but the hourglass bleeds
The higher you rise, the less you see
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
The towers crumble, and the gold decays
What's the price you paid for those endless days?
Your riches drown you in a velvet sea
But your kingdom's made of fragile dreams
You grasp at shadows as the daylight dies
The weight of your wealth is just a disguise
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
Your empire built on broken bones
No one remembers when you're long gone
What's the worth of all you've gained
When dust is all that will remain?
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
Yeah, in the end, it all turns to dust.
But the walls are thin, and you're all alone
Fortunes fade, but the graves stay wide
You can't outrun what you're tryin' to hide
You count your silver, but the hourglass bleeds
The higher you rise, the less you see
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
The towers crumble, and the gold decays
What's the price you paid for those endless days?
Your riches drown you in a velvet sea
But your kingdom's made of fragile dreams
You grasp at shadows as the daylight dies
The weight of your wealth is just a disguise
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
Your empire built on broken bones
No one remembers when you're long gone
What's the worth of all you've gained
When dust is all that will remain?
In the kingdom of dust, it all falls apart
No throne or crown can save your heart
You can gather the world, but it's never enough
'Cause in the end, it all turns to dust
Yeah, in the end, it all turns to dust.
