Ashes to ashes, dust into dust I'll follow you through black Try to forgive that I'm not awake I'm dreaming this dream could last No looking down There's fool's gold in our eyes Burning an empire Happens so easy Playing with fire Maybe it's you and me Burning an empire Is it our fault? We rise and fall Like moths to a flame Like bird to a pane of glass Hoping for change but we do the same We're gasoline and a match No looking down There's fool's gold in our eyes Burning an empire Happens so easy Playing with fire Maybe it's you and me Burning an empire Is it our fault? We rise and fall We just want it all Used to be a tower so tall Now we only are crumbling walls We rise and fall Moth to the flame, as we do the same Like a bird to a pane of glass Burning an empire Happens so easy Playing with fire Maybe it's you and me Burning an empire Is it our fault? We rise and fall
