Architect of the Ruin
Settle down, be still
It is all a test of will
We just need a little time to find some shelter,
To hide a while in the story's fine
You've got yours, well I've got mine
They're just markers on the map to find
The truth that's lying in the middle
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause I was the the architect of half of the ruin
All the hurt and angry men
Play the victim till the end
Never easing their defenses
Well I won't be them, I won't be bitter
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doing
Architect of half of the ruin
I want to see this through my eyes
A year from now or maybe five
A shortcut forward to the day
It's just a memory of change
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doing
Architect of half of the ruin
It is all a test of will
We just need a little time to find some shelter,
To hide a while in the story's fine
You've got yours, well I've got mine
They're just markers on the map to find
The truth that's lying in the middle
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause I was the the architect of half of the ruin
All the hurt and angry men
Play the victim till the end
Never easing their defenses
Well I won't be them, I won't be bitter
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doing
Architect of half of the ruin
I want to see this through my eyes
A year from now or maybe five
A shortcut forward to the day
It's just a memory of change
It's easy to rage
It's easy to blame
It's easy to crumble and curse your name
But I owe you my life
I'll swallow my pride
'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doing
Architect of half of the ruin
