Architects - The Distant Blue Lyrics






That distant blue, thats 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

Their bodies made a mountain, a ladder to the stars
When they reached up to the sun, it only left them with scars
All the saints and the sinners will reap what they sow
So they stood back and watched their bitterness grow

They couldn't tell the cure from disease
They no longer knew their want from their need
They fucked the future, forgot the past
Nothing built was built to last

A common ground, now we see
That connected us like the land and the sea

That distant blue, thats 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

Caught in a web, don't struggle free
This is all we've got, so just let it be
If we save ourselves, we'll feel so small
We'll ask ourselves why we cared at all

    Whenever I sing this song in my head, for some reason, there is always a heavy Italian accent on the "that's me and you". So it's like "that's-a me and-a you-a"

    Does anyone else feel like the lyrics were inspired by Carl Sagans "Pale Blue Dot"?

    “Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam." - Carl Sagan

    M.... M....

    Without a doubt. If you listen to Red Hypergiant, it’s a speech by Carl Sagan, if i’m not mistaken.

    M.... M....

    Ergo: they are in delve with science. Surprising!

    M.... M....

    Ergo: they are in delve with science. Surprising indeed!

    Is this still their best song so far?

  32. G.... H....

    Insanely good work man!

  33. J.... ....

    "Why did we cared at all"? - Because once there was still hope and a chance. Now, we`re all gonna die for faults others have made

  34. D.... G....

    There is a reason for me to subscribe you :D

  35. R.... R....

    So we said everything is easy because technology, and everything our said this's modern, so that is make easier? Or more close ended?

    This is the best thing I've seen come out of metal in a long time. One of my favourite songs Most passionate songs that make sense of life. Stoked you added astronomey into this. It really is a masterpiece.

  85. D.... C....

    I'm suprised bands don't use your videos for the officials. They are definitely worthy

  86. M.... ....

    beautiful, great job!

  87. M.... ....

    They're not my favorite band but they are the most talented band I have
    ever heard. I have never heard any lyrics better than theirs.

    M.... ....

    @Levente Györgydeák no way you believe that

    M.... ....

    @chris evans i do, I know Architects are more talented but I like Slipknot more

    M.... ....

    @chris evans did you watch the live video of Royal beggars?

    M.... ....

    @dead dream not yet. That was one of my least favorite songs from the new album.

    M.... ....

    @dead dream i was at the concert, but didnt realise how good their performance was until i watched the video

  88. T.... H....

    Took Cosmology and listen to Architects is bliss

  89. F.... W....
