Lyrics
From the cradle to the grave
Destined to break like the waves
Existence is so threatening
It takes a fierce grace to crack us open
A moment sat with our sentencing
And the light comes flooding in
Oh, the light comes flooding in
When the leaves fall in the spring
May all the beggars be blessed
Like angels with anhedonia
We’re all just doing our best
Repeating ‘there’s nothing left’
That’s why we weed out the wonderers
Maybe there’s virtue in emptiness
But I still drown in distress
When the leaves fall in the spring
With the ravens here to stay
And the doves all flying away
Sedation feels so welcoming
In the subtle space there’s an endless ocean
But the devils sing and it’s deafening
What a world we’re living in
Oh, we’re never listening
When the leaves fall in the spring
I’ve got a lot to lose
But I won’t lie to you
And make believe sincerity
I’m praying for a remedy
Beloved distant blue
One day I’ll die for you
And swim in sweet serenity
‘Cause death is not my enemy

Death is an open door -> Death is not defeat -> Death is not my enemy
-
I really want them to close a concert with this. I want all of us singing together: Beloved distant blue One day I'll die for you And swim in sweet serenity Cause death is not my enemy I want to sing this loud. With them. With all of you.
-
This made me shed a tear, I couldn't help it. These guys are true artists and I'm forever grateful for their music that helped me and many others to stay on the surface
-
"That distant blue, that's me and you It was from there that we all grew Framed in space, our first home All those beating hearts that were made of stone We were disaster built from flesh and bone" Beloved distant blue, one day I'll die for you
-
One day I'll die for you and swim in sweet serenity cause death is not my enemy ❤
-
Just finished the album. Now I am ready to take on the end of the world
-
I’ve not cried at a song in absolute years but this absolutely shattered me. It felt like someone was begging me to stay alive. I’ve not connected to a song so strongly in a very long time
-
"Like angels with anhedonia." What a fuckin lyric. These dudes are brilliant.
-
3:26 Gave me chills... Drop some manly tears on that part
-
Maybe I'm overthinking, but: May all the beggars be blessed - (Royal Beggars) I’ve got a lot to lose - Holy Hell, I’ve got nothing left to lose (Holy Hell) I’m praying for a remedy - A sickness with no remedy (Gone With the Wind) Beloved distant blue - That Distant Blue, that's me and you (The Distant Blue) ‘Cause death is not my enemy - Death is an open door (Doomsday) - Death is not defeat Yeah, I'm overthinking.
-
"Death is not my Enemy" is such a badass line.. Perfect for after Meteor
-
There's one thing we all can agree this album was perfectly balance between heavy and soft songs and that was awesome
-
Imagine this as a farewell song on a funeral
-
Gotta give it to Architects, they expanded their sound while still keeping the heavier roots, and made a pretty decent album, there are some forgettable tracks on here but overall very solid material. This was a beautiful and sombre way to close this album.
-
This is the perfect album closer, especially with all the references to past tracks
-
This is one of those songs that you can just sing along to on the first listen
-
This band is one that I am the most proud of.
-
This and DEAD BUTTERFLIES made me cry. And the lines are so similar: With the ravens here to stay And the doves all flying away-> All the doves have flown away...Cause the Ravens are here to stay. I love this song, this album, the Band and I can't understand the hate.
-
The final lyrics are the most profound, beautiful and moving I've ever heard.
-
Pretty good album closer I would say. This experimentation they want to go for really works in this song.
