Текст песни Burned Too Bright (Intro) - Tenashi

I saw the spark in your eyes
Baby
The glimmer of a dream
You were reaching for the stars
Pulling strings behind the scenes
(I acknowledge you)
But the higher you climb
The harder you fall
And I'm here to remind you
Can't have it all

Oh, you played with fire
Thought you'd rule the night
But the flames don't care if you're wrong or right
Now you're dancing on a razor
Caught in the fight
Baby
Some dreams just burn too bright

Oh, you wanted the crown?
The thrill of the game
The world at your feet
Your name in the flames
But now the smoke is rising
The shadows bite
Baby
Some dreams just burn too bright

I warned you 'bout the cost of taking more than you can hold
But ambition's a fever
It chills and burns the soul
You built your empire on whispers and lies
But even kings crumble when the devil collects his prize

Oh, you played with fire
Thought you'd rule the night
But the flames don't care if you're wrong or right
Now you're dancing on a razor
Caught in the fight
Baby
Some dreams just burn too bright

Oh, you wanted the crown?
The thrill of the game
The world at your feet
Your name in the flames
But now the smoke is rising
The shadows bite
Baby
Some dreams just burn too bright

Oh, the lights are dimming
The stage is bare
Your kingdom's ashes float through the air
Was it worth the glory?
The fleeting fame?
Or just another story swallowed by the flame?

Oh, you wanted the crown?
The thrill of the game
The world at your feet
Your name in the flames
But now the smoke is rising
The shadows bite
Baby
Some dreams just burn too bright

Now you're lost in the fire
Consumed by the fight
Some dreams weren't meant to survive the night
Oh, baby
You burned too bright
