Toad The Wet Sprocket - Architect Of The Ruin lyrics

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
