{Verse 1}
I was an architect
I was a visionary
I moulded my dreams and built things
They said couldn't be done
{Verse 2}
I was a philosopher
You may have heard about me
'Cause I looked at things in a way
That would make you feel dumb
{Chorus}
Okay, I lied
I only tried all these other things
And I wasn't no good
But I heard a call
The day the music saved it all
{Verse 3}
I was an adventurer
If it was lost I would find it
I've been to cities where battles were lost
And where battles were won
{Verse 4}
I was a painter
I put my mind on a canvas
And I framed the world
My brush work was second to none
{Chorus}
Okay, I lied
I only tried all these other things
And I wasn't no good
But I heard a call
The day the music saved it all
