Lyrics

I do my best but everything seems ominous
Not feeling blessed, quite the opposite
This shouldn’t feel so monotonous
It never rains but it pours

We’re just a bunch of fucking animals
But we’re afraid of the outcome
Don’t cry to me because the fiction that we’re living in
Says I should pull the pin

Should I just pull the pin?

I dug my heels
I thought that I could stop the rot
The ground gave way
Now I’ve lost the plot
Fucked it again
That was all I’ve got
It never rains but it pours

Life is just a dream within a….

Buried under dirt
A diamond in the mud
Infinity is waiting there
‘Cause nobody can burn a glass cathedral

….dream within a dream within a….

Epitaph Records is an artist-first indie label founded in Los Angeles by Bad Religion guitarist, Brett Gurewitz. Early releases from a variety of punk heavyweights helped launch the 90s punk explosion. Along the way, Epitaph has grown and evolved creatively while sticking to its mission of helping real artists make great recordings on their own terms.

  • The beginning, the ending , the song , the hole thing is a masterpiece
  • @NikNocturnal
    So unique yet still has that Architects signature with a bunch of damn juicy riffs and choruses
  • @RickMiddleton-1
    Just found you guys after being recommend by a friend of mine. He says " you have to hear this song". After Listening to this on repeat for an hour i then found the album. That is great from cover to cover! You guys are what this genre needs badly!!!! You guys are tearin it up..much respect.
  • @TransTiefling
    For those wondering what Sam is saying during the reversed part at the beginning, he is saying "Diamond Diamond in the mud, infinity is waiting there, cause nobody can burn a glass cathedral."

    Looks like it's not just a single, Youtube credits gave away that the album is called "For those that wish to Exist" Edit : it's now gone, once they announced that the new album "For Those that wish to Exist" is coming for February 26

    I'm 60 yrs old... my favorite band of all time. Can't wait for the rest of album
  • @carvode7428
    This was the first Architects song I've ever heard. I stumbled across it randomly when it was few weeks old and enjoyed it so much that I got into the band for years. I've listened to every single album on repeat ever since. But there is something unique in this one, its atmosphere is just on an another level
  • Favorite architect song hands down. The mix of chug and harmony is dope af. Wish they would do more songs like this one
