Lyrics

Now the fires burning low
It seems the bottle is my only friend
To think that I was once on top of the world
Knowing who I was and what I’ve become

This is how the story goes
When you fly too close to the sun, you will see
You will get shot down, crucified by your greed

Burning desire
The path to the top was paved by everyone I walked all over
To think that I was once on top of the world
Knowing who I was and what I’ve become

This is how the story goes
When you fly too close to the sun, you will see
You will get shot down, crucified by your greed

Know all I own is me, no fancy cars, no company
I burned my bridges long ago
I lost the woman I loved the most
Pound signs blinded my eyes
Girl do you remember me?

This is how the story goes (this is how the story goes)
When you fly too close to the sun (fly too close), you will see (you will see)
You will get shot down, (shot down) crucified by your greed
