Five.X.Five - The Architect (feat. Billy the Kid)

If I were an architect
Drawn by my flaws
Could you teach me how to sketch
A solid facade
We live in the aftermath
Of spires and globes
The weight of my shoulders crash
When you need them most
Codified by each other
Co-defined by the cover
That we took to the beds
That rest in our heads
That make it hard to dream
I could be an architect
With stories to write
Until then are we left
Alone in the sky
When we feel the aftershock
Will you hang around
Abandon your higher law
Cherish the ground
Codified by each other
Co-defined by the cover
That we took to the beds
That rest in our heads
And didn't make a scene
We're satisfied with the sleep in our eyes
But it makes it hard to dream
Trip the breakers
Windows shake
Forgive the haters
Mark them safe
The quiet parts they said out loud
The sounds that drown the voices out
That say what I already know
I might be the architect
Of my own demise
