Toad the Wet Sprocket - Architect of the Ruin Lyrics

Settle down, be stillIt is all a test of willWe just need a little time to find some shelter,To hide a while in the story's fineYou've got yours, well I've got mineThey're just markers on the map to findThe truth that's lying in the middleIt's easy to rageIt's easy to blameIt's easy to crumble and curse your nameBut I owe you my lifeI'll swallow my pride'Cause I was the the architect of half of the ruinAll the hurt and angry menPlay the victim till the endNever easing their defensesWell I won't be them, I won't be bitterIt's easy to rageIt's easy to blameIt's easy to crumble and curse your nameBut I owe you my lifeI'll swallow my pride'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doingArchitect of half of the ruinI want to see this through my eyesA year from now or maybe fiveA shortcut forward to the dayIt's just a memory of changeIt's easy to rageIt's easy to blameIt's easy to crumble and curse your nameBut I owe you my lifeI'll swallow my pride'Cause part of me always knew just what I was doingArchitect of half of the ruin
