Epica - Architect Of Light Lyrics






Somnia cum clamoribus
Linquite corda plena ravoris
Videte pompam horroris
Paries scaenae perditorum

Within the corners of a waking mind
(Awaiting the count)
Distant dreams are not too far behind
It is the architect of light
(That's shown in the night)
A passage through a sleeping mind's myriad dreams

Somnia cum clamoribus
Linquite corda plena ravoris
Videte pompam horroris
Paries scaenae damnatorum

Forever guided by the great design
(In moonrise we drown)
Crystal circles will create a sign
Tangled streams of endless energy
(Unseen enemies)
A mosaic of insanity a million fears

Approximate the minds debate
In the night your eyes are blind
The wicked beasts are well disguised
My inner wounds will never heal
The dark of night has now arrived
Within the corners of my life
Lift up the shadows of the heart
Prepare for what your eyes will see

What we cannot see
We should not believe
What lies beneath the gravity
We all see the architect of light
That pulls you down
What we cannot hear
We no longer fear
Nothing is ever what it seems
We all see the architect of light
That pulls you down

As now devotion will unfold
Take in the fear of truth untold
And now the diamonds are aligned
We'll wear jewels of the night

Approximate the minds debate
In the night your eyes are blind
The wicked beasts are well disguised
My inner wounds will never heal
The dark of night has now arrived
Within the corners of my life
Lift up the shadows of the heart
Prepare for what your eyes will see

What we cannot see
We should not believe
What lies beneath the gravity
We all see the architect of light
That pulls you down
What we cannot hear
We no longer fear
Nothing is ever what it seems
We all see the architect of light

What we cannot see
We should not believe
What lies beneath the gravity
We all see the architect of light
It pulls you down
What we cannot hear
We no longer fear
Nothing is ever what it seems
We all see the architect of light
That pulls you down

Epica Architect Of Light Comments
  1. A.... F....

    Hey, it would be cool if the lyrics came on before it was time to sing them...

  2. a.... c....

    A fluminense é mimosa
    Florinha meiga e gentil,
    A alfacinha é impetuosa,
    No proprio amor varonil ;
    Morre aquella apaixonada
    Se um homem lhe causa mal
    Esta no gajo, irritada,
    Cravaria um bom punhal!

    E' da pá virada !
    Não ha outra igual

  3. L.... ....

    The 40 sec section near end is supreme. I havent bothered with cutting songs recently, but for this one I did it.


    Feedback on video, lyrics are too late to be useful.

  4. D.... D....

  5. R.... M....

  6. D.... T....

    creationism?

    D.... T....

  7. K.... ....

  10. I.... B....

    666 likes... It's stupid I know, but, 666 likes... I can't mess that up

  11. S.... ....

    Xandria - Queen of hearts reborn... very similar...

    S.... ....

    the fuck are you talking about that this song is similar to that Xandria song. The only similarity those song have is that they were produced by Sandlane Record Studio, and both bands were Dutch.

    S.... ....

    just an EPICA fan you should never mess with meh... you must go with a music teacher and learn something... then search the song and listen it with your new skills... then say some smart words.

    S.... ....

    Somberdance I heard the song, i'm a fan of Xandria too, at least, the Maneulla and Dianne. I see no similarities with the two songs.

    S.... ....

    Well your comment has no insults so now i will talk friendly... i never said that the song was similar.. i said very similar.. and i was talking about the choir in the beggining.. the rest of the song is completly different.. but that part reminds me a lot of xandrias song... never tried to mess up with epica or with you

    S.... ....

    yeah, my apologies for acting rude there, well, have a good day.

  12. Y.... R....

    Of course we talk about Epica, i love Epica!.

  13. T.... G....

    cant wait to see them play this song ---> 21/11/2017

    T.... G....

    The Great Hall of Metal where they will play this song?

    T.... G....

    Daniel Sodré Lisboa

    T.... G....

  14. M.... V....

    Esta muy chida 💝

  15. F.... G....

    Me vuela la cabeza el cello que se escucha de fondo cuando Simone canta, es genial!

  16. G.... X....

    ♥ This song is so great!

  17. F.... ....

    The beginning and middle chorus English translation please

  18. T.... F....

    Once again I say to all: EPICA is the fem/symphonic standard bearer. All other bands are emulators and some do quite well but this is certainly the best band in the world in these genres top to bottom.

    T.... F....

    DO YOU HAVE YOUR HEAD UP YOUR ASS? BECAUSE, uhm yeah he said that like a few weeks ago and do you realize why?

    BECAUSE ANETTE OLZON IS KICKING HIS ASS. For starters, you do see the years he stated 2019/2020- thats 3 years away dude. 3 years is an eternity in music. TODAY THEY ARE MIA.

    MEANTIME, before Anettes new band was formed TH was all dead and buried. Even Floor Jansen has moved on. Then out comes THE DARK ELEMENT album in October 2017 and its a very good album featuring an all star cast of metal musicians. Suddenly the old FIN with all his jealous demons went half crazy.

    The Dark Element will be the METAL ALBUM OF THE YEAR and has gotten rave critical reviews. Several songs in that elude back to her days at NW. I personally like that album, the sound, and the theme very much. Its not a masterpiece, but no band's 1st album is. It is going towards that direction and huge public attention has come with it because PEOPLE LIKE ANETTE OLZON.

    So dude before you take jabs at me, I advise you to really be up on the WHOLE FREAKIN PICTURE, and not simply 1 jadded piece of it.

    OTHER BIG NEWS: Ailyn is about to announce a new band and is prepping for that by co-leading at another band SECRET RULE. ALSO, it is highly rumored that Liv Kristen is about to reform THEATER OF TRAGEDY bringing the themes and material forward to match the current trends.

    Man, I am the 1st person that announced TH's "Imaginarium Project" a year in advance and everybody went crazy and stalked my youtube page. THEN IT HAPPENED exactly as I said. Again I struck with the whole NW/Anette Olzon sabotage in advance and bang there it was. 3rd lightning strike was a few years ago when everyone believed SIMONE SIMONS was out of music and EPICA was over. I stated almost a tear ahead of that they would continue and be better then before. That certainly has happened. Dont mess with me man. I am connected with these people & we are like one big brotherhood. That is a really great thing in my life and I LIVE FOR METAL.

    T.... F....

    My friend, I absolutely agree with you. Epics is the best

    T.... F....

    Totally Fem Metal Channel damn right I think of them being Beautiful METAL they kick ass live ..SS SO BEAUTIFUL

    T.... F....

    Agreed. Epica defined new standards for this genre.

    T.... F....

    NW is my fav band, ive been listening to them over so many years, but I got tell u, epica is far ahead on this genre right now, nw is just a folk something band now... sadly...

  19. d.... ....

    this is probably my fav from the new EP , with wheel of Destiny right behind it , even though the intro does sound like bfmv's- waking the demon

  20. V.... M....

    Great song! one of my favorites from them!

  21. y.... ....

    aaaaaaaaaaaa 💜

  22. M.... ....

    Ep is better than the album

  23. t.... ....

    The music is fucking insane! I LOVE IT!

  24. M.... D....

    I like it, but, simone where is your soprano? That soprano that you felt so proud of...
    I really want something dope.

    M.... D....

    Marco David Torres Monatana watch "decoded poetry" toward the end you have your soprano

    M.... D....

    Just because you're a soprano [or have the range], you have to belt out in every single song. She sings every song how it should be. If the song requires belting or classical, she will do it.

  25. g.... c....

    Re piola esta genial :3

  26. C.... D....

    Great edit.... the only feedback I have is to maybe blur out the background image a bit so we can read the lyrics better ;-)

  27. M.... M....

    Where did you find that pic? I would like get some more pics of epica like this one

    M.... M....

  37. P.... ....

    I love it! Its absolutly amazing! I understand that this was not on the holographic principle because it does not fall in line with the other songs, but I am incredibly happy that they released this song!

    P.... ....

    but lyrically, it does, it deals with illusions and dream manipulation

    P.... ....

    it seems to me that this song speak about black hole.
