The Architect

Bm B E B Bm A

Bm B              Bm
My god where have you gone?
                                                     A
I’ve been looking for you everywhere but find myself alone
B
Through woods and fields, churches and halls
Bm           B                           A              E
But no one’s there to hear my prayers or answer when I call
   B                        E
My god where have you gone?
     Bm            B                E
You left without a warning and with so many things undone
 B
A king shall come when morning dawns if history’s repeating
    Bm      B                      E                            B E
And I’m not sure if I’m the one to keep this pulsing heat in

B
My god what have I done?
                         E    B   A             Bm
I didn’t choose to turn into this creature I’ve become
              E       B             Bm
And I don’t know this strength I’ve found
B               F#m  Bm                E
Although I have understood it’ll do no good for kicking dust around
Bm         E    Bm     E     B
So hold me back if you still can
           A                                       B              E
Before I’m pissing rivers, spatter storms, drawing valleys in the sand
       Bm      B                          Bm
Now my left is crying for intent while my right begs for a spin
                         E                B     E
Is this all just another test, this mess you’ve left me in?
   B
My God

Bm
I don’t know where the light will fall
        B                     Bm    D              E
I only see myself as shadows and as paint upon the walls
   B       F#  B      Bm                                                     E
If I could learn from your mistakes where your architecture grew with every error that you made
    Bm   B
I’d only wish for a quiet night
            A        E
To close my eyes and dream awake like a candle that’s blown out
             B                   Bm
But I am all set now and want to let go
         E                     A    E                          B
And with endless opportunities I am off to build my world alone
