Lyrics

Intro

Verse 1

I was counting every failure

Like a debt I couldn't pay

Dragging all my old mistakes

Through every brand-new day

You were dancing through the fallout

Laughing at the rain

Saying every road that breaks you

Leaves a map beneath the pain

Pre-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

We were never meant to stay the same

Oh-oh-oh

Every fire leaves a different flame

Chorus

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

We built a cathedral

Out of broken parts

Hands to the heavens

Feet in the dark

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

Post-Chorus

Hey! Hey!

Sing it loud, sing it loud

Hey! Hey!

We are what we survived

Verse 2

Every door that closed behind us

Every bridge we watched burn down

Every night we thought we'd vanished

Still somehow we made a sound

Now the smoke has turned to sunlight

Now the dust has turned to stars

All the things that tried to break us

Only showed us who we are

Pre-Chorus

Oh-oh-oh

We were never meant to stay the same

Oh-oh-oh

Every fire leaves a different flame

Chorus

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

We built a cathedral

Out of broken parts

Hands to the heavens

Feet in the dark

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

Break

If you're carrying the weight tonight

Let it go, let it go

If you're standing in the ruins now

Let it show, let it show

Every crack lets in the light

Every ending rewrites the story

We were never buried here

We were digging for the glory

Instrumental

Chorus

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

We built a cathedral

Out of broken parts

Hands to the heavens

Feet in the dark

There's gold in the wreckage

Gold in the scars

Outro

Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh

Gold in the wreckage

Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh

Gold in the scars

Woah-oh-oh-oh-oh

We built a cathedral

Out of broken parts.
