"The Architect" lyrics

"The Architect"

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 bathe 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 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 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
