We built a throne from broken glass
Swore forever, let it pass
The crowns we wore began to rust
A kingdom made of dust
The sun forgot our silver names
The wind just whispered what remains Every empire turns to trust
Then falls
to dust A kingdom made of dust
Still burns because it must We ruled on borrowed time
A kingdom made of dust Now crumbles under us
But even as it fades it shines Because it was
You carved your faith into the stone
I sang our sins in undertones
But silence crowned us kind but cruel
The ashes kept their rule
The walls still hum our quiet pleas
The ghosts still move like memories
But we're kings
of dust
Maybe ruin is what we are
Falling slowly,
reaching far
Every lost monument
to love that won't pre-land
Still echoes what we trust
The walls collapse, the night
is near
But I still feel you here
A kingdom made of dust
Can't break what broke in us
We fade but not unjust
Our kingdom made
of dust
