[Verse]
Kicked a stone down a dead-end street
The echo screamed like a ghost in heat
Shadows stretched long but never meet
I'm a stranger
Even to my feet
[Chorus]
Down to dust
Down to rust
Everything I hold turns to bust
Down to dust
Down to rust
Is this the price of losing trust
[Verse 2]
Fingers bleed from holding tight
Knuckles white but the grip ain't right
Mirror cracked and it bites back light
My reflection’s a fist in the fight
[Prechorus]
Tell me why
Tell me when
Does it hurt
Does it end
[Chorus]
Down to dust
Down to rust
Everything I hold turns to bust
Down to dust
Down to rust
Is this the price of losing trust
[Bridge]
I built a house on shifting sand
Now it’s a ruin
Can’t even stand
All my bones are carved by the land
A graveyard's whisper
A hollowed hand
