lyrics

I am the architect
of a thousand pocket universes
i hold the keys of creation in the palm of my hand

i play notes that sound like emotion
and rhythms that feel like life
i craft perfect little moments from imperfect plans

but no one hears the words i say
they drift up into the aether, and slip away
the magic lost in mystery

CHORUS
I am the architect
of intellect
in a present imperfect
meant to misdirect
i am the architect

the moments, sometimes fleeting
and not so readily clear
of love once had and lost, but so true

Of heroic feats accomplished
and epic dreams pursued
the hero gets the girl, and all that ballyhoo

but no one hears the words i say
they drift up into the aether, and slip away
the magic lost in disarray

CHORUS

I am the architect
of intellect
in a present imperfect
meant to misdirect
and disconnect
all due respect
this shit is wrecked
