Lyrics

The Architect

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I gave you my everything, but it was never enough for you

And just like young lovers do, we made mistakes we can't undo

Whatever I do for you, you will never be satisfied

You wade in my waters, 'til the dying of the tide

I'll give you heaven

I'll give you hell

I'm raising my huntsmen

I'm casting my spell

And if I all I have is to be wasted away

I'll save myself tonight

I can't take the pain

I will forgive you, but I won't forget

I will forgive you, for the burden and neglect

I will forgive you, no I can not forget

And I will outlive you

I am the architect

Oh, if you stop hurting me

Then I'll have some time to heal

So try to be tender, now

'Cause the darkness feels so real

I'll give you heaven

I'll give you hell

I'm raising my huntsmen

I'm casting my spell

And if I all I have is to be wasted away

I'll save myself tonight

I can't take the pain

I will forgive you, but I won't forget

I will forgive you, for the burden and neglect

I will forgive you, no I can not forget

And I will outlive you

I am the architect

And I know I will love again

Give my heart again

You better believe it

Goodnight, my beautiful nightmare

Sleep sweet, no more despair

You better believe it

That I will forgive you, but I won't forget

I will forgive you, for the burden and neglect

I will forgive you, and I can not forget

And I will outlive you

I am the architect

I am the architect
