Architects - Black Blood Lyrics






We've found a taste for self-destruction
A blind eye for blatant dysfunction
We've found a taste for self-destruction
We're all born in black blood

There's an imminence stirring like a siren singing
There's a debt to pay but they keep on drilling
Why is simple truth so hard to tell
We had eden and turned it into hell

Born in black blood

Because this distance in our minds
Is the distance that we're behind
I can't forgive, we won't forget
I can't forgive, we won't forget

The lonely sound of the final drip
Like the starting gun marking the end of it
On the shoulders of forever
It's a long way to fall
Black gold will be the death
The death of us all

Black drought, word will spread
Of the time we found what the earth bled

Born in black blood

Because this distance in our minds
Is the distance that we're behind
I can't forgive, we won't forget
I can't forgive, we won't forget
[x2]

Black drought, word will spread
Of the time we found what the earth bled
We found the cancer inside of our heads
There's no turning back now
We're as good as dead

When the well dried up no one cared
But when hell shows up, they'll all stop and stare
[x2]

We've found the cancer inside of our heads
No turning back now
We're as good as dead
[x2]

I can't forgive, we won't forget
[x4]

We won't forget

    Killer song!

  5. S.... J....

    Есть кто из 2019?

  6. y.... a....

    2019 right here

  7. j.... h....

    does anyone else get mortal after all vibes off the new album at 1:20?

  8. j.... h....

    still here in 2019

  9. J.... v....

    BORN IN BLEGH BLOOD

  10. J.... B....

    We love you Tom

  11. c.... ....

    Still the best lyric-video, I've ever seen! Keep up the great work.

  12. p.... t....

    2019 Lately watch this master piece... I love architects

  13. t.... g....

    most underrated architects song in my opinion!

  14. T.... D....

    1:19 has gotta be the greatest guitar riff of all time.

  15. A.... A....

    I will always remember this song from Neos TV' series called "Black Blood", it's anime.
    - Who elese remember this anime, season 4 is now officially playing

  16. D.... ....

    0:59 blegh
    2:15 eaghh

  17. A.... M....

    Cant believe i just now discovered this song!!! Brilliant song, so much energy and such a strong message. Love Architects so much

  18. D.... S....

    In 2018, this one is still my fav from architects. <3

  19. E.... l....

    Song STILL fucking SLAPS

  20. K.... ....

    2018 anyone? <3

  21. L.... F....

    Why is it so hard for humanity to unite?
    If we all came together, the hell wouldn't show up, instead we could create heaven on earth for everyone in this reality that we know exists. Instead of them trying to feed people a hope of a heaven so that they accept the shit reality that they are all living.

    One day, we will get there.

  22. O.... o....

    We found what the earth bled... such stunning imagery.

  23. M.... G....

    fuck yes.

  24. C.... 1....

    I ha e been on and off with this band. I really liked Doomsday and never really got into their other songs. But this song and These Colours Don't Run are fucking awesome! Gonna have to dig deeper.

  25. A.... S....

    brilliant

  26. G.... ....

    Only 1M views ... it's sad that such a beautiful and meaningful song hasn't spread enough

  27. J.... B....

    To bad they contribute more in one tour to the problem then what an average person is suppose to consume over an entire decade for the world to truly be at a sustainable level of pollution. One flight is equal to a years worth. So really you can make all the videos you want but when your contributing so much to the problem at hand it makes you sound either ignorant or like a hypocrite

    J.... B....

    Jesse Belanger Then how the hell are they suppose to tour then?

  28. L.... l....

    still one of their best song and one of the best songs ever made

  29. S.... ....

    What an amazing lyric video

  30. P.... p....

    At 1:20 I feel like I'm going to explode out of my physical body. Holy shit.

    P.... p....

    A Suh the guitars are sick there

  31. R.... A....

    thank god. they reissued this. the song is the bomb, best breakdowns. credits to architects for the lyrics and music.

  32. C.... R....

    They've got the truth in this blind world which is controlled by business and the corrupted media

  33. y.... ....

    that riff at 1:20 gets me hyped everytime

  34. j.... ....

    who the hell and how long have these angels been around!?! I thoroughly enjoyed the last couple videos one of them being "colours". what a band, jeez Louise. what a band thank you and god bless Amerika

    j.... ....

    They aren't from Merica :)

  35. A.... F....

    Remember to never Forget...

  36. U.... G....

    they say true !

  37. S.... F....

    They need to continue playing this Album live. It is so amazing.

  38. M.... O....

    sometimes a quiet "blegh" is all you need 0:57

    M.... O....

    quiet blegh hahahahhahahaha

  39. C.... B....

    This is one of my favorite song ever ;)

  40. x.... ....

    A friend recommended this band. Epic AF 🤘

  41. S.... B....

    Knowing this is 4 years ago by now and still nothing has changed about what the song is about, makes me lose even more hope in human kind's survival.

    S.... B....

    Schoarma Bestelbus 4 years is nothing. The world's only gonna get worse unless ppl wake the fk up. and not just a few

    S.... B....

    We need the world leaders to listen to Architects...

    S.... B....

    @AimTraining the world eaters would not give a damn if they did.

  42. P.... [....

    the cleans kinda ruin the atmosphere of the song imo but other than that this song is great

  43. M.... P....

    This band is basically telling you to WAKE THE FUCK UP.

  44. G.... Q....

    1:08 that little fast riff after the half time is fucking heavenly.

  45. D.... S....

    I do not remember this song being this fast. I call Mandela effect.

  46. �.... A....

    What genre is this?

    �.... A....

    Metalcore? Mathcore?

    �.... A....

    @Pitra Agung I guess it's metalcore.

  47. j.... ....

    This moment when you realize, that "True friends" (Bmth) isn't the most agressive lyrics-video.. This song is amazing :)

  48. V.... V....

    Good to see the Architects on here . LOVE this Band and unlike most bands that are consumed only by the nonesence of the Shallow industry trying to kid the rest of us that we wana be slaves to their imboceil backwards temptations of material things , and the laughable sexualisation of everything . The members of this Band are awake !!!! Will probably be sensored AGAIN for having a valid point lol VEGAN VOCALIST

  49. T.... N....

    This is the single most intense lyrics video I've ever seen holy shit

  50. e.... ....

    sunshine, fishing, yuengling, architects.... word.

  51. N.... ....

    I'm sorry but I keep hearing waffle spread lmao

  52. A.... ....

    I just need to listen to this song from time to time...

  53. s.... ....

    One of the best metal song I've ever heard....

  54. M.... P....

    we consumed 50% less energy than the year before! i know one person alone cannot save the world but together we can do it !!! let's make this earth a better place !!!!!

  55. M.... E....

    this fucking awesome breakdown♡

  56. J.... K....

    Is there a word for "this feels so good on my ears?"

    You may be gone, but you'll live forever Tom. Thank you Architects.

  57. T.... ....

    I feel like the chorus should have gone "this DISSONANCE in our minds, is the distance that we're behind." Wouldn't have been as repetitious that way. Still good shit though.

  58. R.... E....

    This specific song seems to be about oil. Saying we rely on it so much despite it being finite. And governments will do anything for oil. For instance the war in the middle east is all about who gets the oil. The united states, terrorists, or the Russian federation.

  59. B.... G....

    Architects In My Blood. :). RIP Tom, we won't forget you.

  60. J.... L....

    This is the most amount of cleans I've heard in an Architects song, I like it tho

    J.... L....

    Jimmy Lynch you've clearly not heard heartburn then :P

    J.... L....

    If you like their clean vocals you should listen to Memento Mori by them its pretty good with a lot of cleans

  61. T.... ....

    Good Song, Good Clip, Respect that...
    R.I.P. Tom......

  62. n.... g....

    BAD BLOOD !!! 😈😈

  63. S.... ....

    the editing is sick <3

  64. R.... ....

    This Tom must has been the head of this band and a very sensitive person. So highbrow .... this music! Simply breathtaking!

  65. A.... ....

    anyone here cuz of soul eater? xD this is so ragnarok and crona

    A.... ....

    Lizzie Van Otterlo looll you made my day with this comment

    A.... ....

    your welcome, my fellow otaku-chan.

  66. A.... E....

    God ask us to soundmind, then prove him our BRAIN Exist
    Or feel the beat of our HEARTS,

  67. F.... E....

    I can listen to this part 1:19 - 1:33 like a thousand times and still love it...

    F.... E....

    Such a sick riff

    F.... E....

    hell yeah

    F.... E....

    I can listen to this part 0:00 - 4:31 like a thousand times and still love it... :D

  68. H.... D....

    hands down to THE BEST lyric video ever made... any doubt just play attention to all effects/variations and how well it was synced, and how it matches perfectly with the meaning

    H.... D....

    for sure, so much transitions, it was a very detailed work

  69. D.... D....

    love you, Tommy <3

  70. T.... H....

    Thank you Tom!Thank you for everything! You are and forever will be my hero!!! <3

  71. S.... F....

    "We've found the cancer inside of our heads No turning back now We're as good as dead"

  72. A.... S....

    It's so heart breaking...

  73. m.... ....

    Great song. My mother passed away a few weeks ago and songs like this help

    m.... ....

    Bless you, continue on with your head high and heart true.

  74. C.... ....

    Rest in peace brother <3

  75. D.... H....

    is Architects Metalcore??

    D.... H....

    @Florian Baiker And you are judging by one song. So wise.

    D.... H....

    +Necronomicron I'm actually not. Just commenting on this specific song. Source: I tried to learn several of Architects songs on guitar. But its okay, if you want them mathcore have it your way. I won't mind.

    D.... H....

    Yes, they are Metalcore

    D.... H....

    Archibleghcore to be extremely specific

  76. D.... H....

    Bro, that fucking quick, tapping rift is orgasmic. Another brilliant song by Architects.

  77. B.... E....

    these dudes are TOO FRICKING REAL. finally some metal i can truly get pissed with

  78. N.... b....

    the 9669th like LENNYFACE

  79. R.... O....

    Got tickets to see you guys in Toronto next month for my birthday. So stoked to see y'all kill it!

  80. S.... R....

    Actualy they played this song on tour with PWD and TAIM in january, at least in Munich - I was there and moshed my brains out!

  81. E.... C....

    What is the song about?

    E.... C....

    By my thoughts , It's about people's ignorance, and how they're working AGAINST each other.
    How people are polluting,destroying the Earth they live on.

    E.... C....

    Thank u

    E.... C....

    +Ezgi Calis oil

    E.... C....

    Everyone who listen this song in 2016, now know what the song about :(

    Rip Tom

  82. D.... S....

    PLEASE RESTART PLAYING THIS SONG LIVE

    D.... S....

    Shane Federmeyer hey I was at that show. it was kick ass

    D.... S....

    Yes man...yesterday in Prague they played it! Fuckin kickass song <3

    D.... S....

    Pavel Arnyy they played it yesterday in munich and I screamed like a little girl :D

    D.... S....

    they do :)

    D.... S....

    They do in alexandra palace

  83. E.... ....

    When the well dried up!
    No one cared!
    But when hell shows up!
    They'll all stop and stare!

    E.... ....

    We've found the cancer inside of our heads
    No turning back now
    We're as good as dead!

  84. O.... B....

    better then bring me the horizon

    O.... B....

    +shane bernesser u sure? 😂

    O.... B....

    yeah check bmth, live a piece of shit

    O.... B....

    +Dan Smith definitely better than new bmth

    O.... B....

    For me bmth and architects are best bands I've ever seen. Both of them, yet I prefer bmth 's cyb than their new songs

    O.... B....

    why compare them? Architects is Metalcore coming from a punk/Hardcore aesthetic, and BMTH are Metalcore coming from a Deathcore aesthetic. Architects are definitely more technical but they're both incredible bands

  85. L.... ....

    Crona anyone? :3

  86. A.... B....

    after lost forever/ lost together, this is still my favourite architects song!

    A.... B....

    +Alex Bull Lost Forever//Lost Together is the name of the album

    A.... B....

    +Alec Ramsey I'm sure he means after the release of Lost Forever // Lost Together, his favourite song is still Black Blood

    A.... B....

    +Alec Ramsey Yooooo Node is a fucking kick ass album

  87. D.... -....

    I ain't no forgiver, forgetter! I guess...

  88. s.... ....

    masterpiece

  89. H.... K....

    We've found a taste for self-destruction
    A blind eye for blatant dysfunction

    There's a debt to pay but they keep on drilling
    Why is simple truth so hard to tell
    We had eden and turned it into hell
