Ace of Cups Lyrics

I’m using up all my strength
I think I’ll give up at length
I’m giving it one more blast
I’m keeping the best for last (x2)

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone

I’m showing off my physique
Compared to a moth I’m weak
I’m coiled up like a spring
But I can do anything
Yes I could do anything

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone

World is around you
The wood is dry but it’s heavy
I will astound you
My head is clear but it’s heavy
My world surrounds you
My heart is hard but it’s heavy
Yeah
Yeah

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Yeah
Yeah

I’m using up all my strength
I think I’ll give up at length
I’m giving it one more blast
I’m keeping the best for last (x2)

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone

I’m showing off my physique 
Compared to a moth I’m weak
I’m coiled up like a spring
But I can do anything
Yes I could do anything

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone

World is around you
The wood is dry but it’s heavy
I will astound you
My head is clear but it’s heavy
My world surrounds you
My heart is hard but it’s heavy
Yeah
Yeah

I’ve been riding on a lava flow
Caught a wave and watched it grow
Breaking boulders with a single blow
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Is it me or has the mountain grown?
Now I’m moving a very heavy stone
Yeah
Yeah

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
