Modern Life Architecture
When we're young, we design a plan
We work, we build, we make it real
And in the moment it becomes complete
The first cracks start to appear
A weak foundation finally revealed
In the desperation, when the walls came tumbling down
Oh, in my prime
Oh, never to return
Oh, as I once was
A broken man living half a life
Without you
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned
On the steps of a modern life
In defeat, we redesign the plan
And we give it just one more chance
As we take another deep breath
And prepare for the worst again
A life in crisis is always threatened by time
For the longer it takes to be restored
The less likely it is to occur
Oh, in my prime
Oh, never to return
Oh, as I once was
A broken man living all alone
Without you
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned
On the steps of a modern life
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned with you
On the steps of a modern life
There is always hope of course
That one day we will rise again
But this modern life architecture
Is crumbling under the weight of the world
We work, we build, we make it real
And in the moment it becomes complete
The first cracks start to appear
A weak foundation finally revealed
In the desperation, when the walls came tumbling down
Oh, in my prime
Oh, never to return
Oh, as I once was
A broken man living half a life
Without you
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned
On the steps of a modern life
In defeat, we redesign the plan
And we give it just one more chance
As we take another deep breath
And prepare for the worst again
A life in crisis is always threatened by time
For the longer it takes to be restored
The less likely it is to occur
Oh, in my prime
Oh, never to return
Oh, as I once was
A broken man living all alone
Without you
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned
On the steps of a modern life
On the path to recovery
With the empires crumbling
I left all dreams abandoned with you
On the steps of a modern life
There is always hope of course
That one day we will rise again
But this modern life architecture
Is crumbling under the weight of the world
