[Verse 1] Stepping out of the night With the truth in the light You were chasing the shine of a promise untold Counting all of the wins While the cracks settled in Every word that we spoke slowly turning to gold [Verse 2] I can see in your eyes Every glittering prize Every dream getting weighed on a delicate scale You were reaching for more While we slipped through the floor And the love that we built slowly started to fail [Pre-Chorus] But it's pulling me under Every lie that you hide And I'm losing the wonder Of the girl by my side [Chorus] It started with fire Now it's ashes and dust You wanted the world But nothing was enough Now the gold in your hands Is turning to rust You wanted the world But nothing was enough [Verse 3] Now the nights feel the same Just a different kind of pain Every memory shining like glass in the dark All the dreams that we made Got buried in trade Every promise collapsing apart [Pre-Chorus] And the truth keeps on breaking Every wall that we built And the silence is shaking With the weight of the guilt [Chorus] It started with fire Now it's ashes and dust You wanted the world But nothing was enough Now the gold in your hands Is turning to rust You wanted the world But nothing was enough [Bridge] I never thought the hunger Would take you this far Every wish turning colder With every new star But the higher you climb The harder it falls Now you're standing alone At the top of it all [Final Chorus] It started with fire Now it's ashes and dust You wanted the world But nothing was enough Now the gold in your hands Is turning to rust You wanted the world But nothing was enough
