Lyrics

0:07Even something as small as an apple
0:12It's simple and somehow complex
0:15Sweet and divine the perfect design
0:19Can I speak to the architect
0:23And there's a canyon that cuts through the desert
0:27Did it get there because of a flood
0:31Was it devised
0:33Or were you surprised
0:35When you saw how grand it was
0:39Was it thought out at all or just paint on a wall
0:42Is there anything that you regret
0:47I don't understand are there blueprints or plans
0:50Can I speak to the architect
0:56Sometimes I look in the mirror
1:00And wish I could make a request
1:04Could I pray it away
1:06Am I shapeable clay
1:08Or is this as good as it gets
1:12One day you're on top of the mountain
1:16So high that you'll never come down
1:19Then the wind at your back carries ember and ash
1:23That it burns your whole house to the ground
1:27Is it thought out at all or just paint on a wall
1:31Is there anything that you regret
1:35I don't understand are there blueprints or plans
1:39Can I speak to the architect
2:06I thought that I was too broken
2:10And maybe too hard to love
2:14I was in a weird place then I saw the right face
2:18And the stars and the planets lined up
2:22Does it happen by chance
2:24Is it all happenstance
2:26Do we have any say in this mess
2:30Is it too late to make some more space
2:33Can I speak to the architect
2:37This life that we make is it random or fate
2:41Can I speak to the architect
2:45Is there an architect
Even something as small as an apple
It's simple and somehow complex
Sweet and divine the perfect design
Can I speak to the architect
And there's a canyon that cuts through the desert
Did it get there because of a flood
Was it devised
Or were you surprised
When you saw how grand it was
Was it thought out at all or just paint on a wall
Is there anything that you regret
I don't understand are there blueprints or plans
Can I speak to the architect
Sometimes I look in the mirror
And wish I could make a request
Could I pray it away
Am I shapeable clay
Or is this as good as it gets
One day you're on top of the mountain
So high that you'll never come down
Then the wind at your back carries ember and ash
That it burns your whole house to the ground
Is it thought out at all or just paint on a wall
Is there anything that you regret
I don't understand are there blueprints or plans
Can I speak to the architect
I thought that I was too broken
And maybe too hard to love
I was in a weird place then I saw the right face
And the stars and the planets lined up
Does it happen by chance
Is it all happenstance
Do we have any say in this mess
Is it too late to make some more space
Can I speak to the architect
This life that we make is it random or fate
Can I speak to the architect
Is there an architect
