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.
