The Architect of Lies

[Intro]
[Verse]
You kept me in the hallway
Living in the small way
You told me I was a ghost
When I needed you the most
You took my pride and you tore it
I was too scared to ignore it
Now I am finally awake
Knowing how much you can take
[Pre-Chorus]
The feedback starts to drone
I'm standing here alone
The cello starts to cry
As your influence will die
[Chorus]
I’m screaming in the rain
Washing off your stain
My name is in the lights
Through these neon nights
Yeah look at me now
Take your final bow
The architect of lies
Watch the phoenix rise
[Post-Chorus]
(Guttural Scream)
Rise from the lies
(Guttural Scream)
Rise from the lies
[Verse]
Crumpled sketchbooks on the floor
I don't need you anymore
Rusted locks upon the door
I won't settle for the score
You called my vision weak
Now the speakers start to speak
Everything’s unique
At the creative peak
[Pre-Chorus]
The feedback starts to drone
I'm standing here alone
The cello starts to cry
As your influence will die
[Chorus]
I’m screaming in the rain
Washing off your stain
My name is in the lights
Through these neon nights
Yeah look at me now
Take your final bow
The architect of lies
Watch the phoenix rise
[Bridge]
Digging up the shallow grave
I am no longer your slave
Everything you built, destroyed
I’m the scream inside the void
(Primal Scream)
I’m the scream inside the void
(Primal Scream)
[Solo]
[Verse]
The rain is slick and cold
But the story has been told
I'm feeling rather bold
In a world of gold
The marquee’s glowing red
Everything you ever said
Is just static in my head
Now the monster’s finally dead
[Outro]
