Lyrics
You lit it up so fast
The candle couldn't last
When you were a kid
The grown ups pressured it
They said you got to go
Go put on that show
Give it all you got
But boy that costs a lot
When you fly with
Wings of fire
You can only go so far
Wings of fire
The type of wings that fame give
When you're a star
Wings of fire
Man did you climb up the charts
Fueled from a pressured start
Only gold had paved your way
And it's platinum here today
With all the world to call your home
You still felt so all alone
It could only last so long
Before you were here and gone
You were flying with
Wings of fire
You could only go so far
With wings of fire
The type of wings that fame give
When you're a star
Wings of fire
So now the king
Of pop won't sing
Just where we going to turn
His burning wings
Proved just one thing
That even royal wings can burn
He was flying with
Wings of fire
He could only go so far
With wings of fire
The type of wings that fame give
When you're a star
Wings of fire
You can only go so far
With wings of fire
The type of wings that fame give
When you're a star
Wings of fire
You can only go so far
With wings of fire
The type of wings that fame give
When you're a star
