Architect

The silence on our lips is

Getting louder in our eyes

Can you tell I’m scared?

During talks we have

Cuz I don’t mean to lie

Make me feel unsure

So I can reflect

I’d trade calm for storms

Cause I know that nothing’s perfect

Let nature be the architect

Of what we could be become

I’m not in a rush cause

I’ve seen beauty turn to war

Let us hold our ground

Let it come, don’t chase

If it breaks us down

Let it break with grace

What if we go too deep?

What if we’re there, but don’t see?

What if we go too deep?

What if we’re already in?

Battlefields with poppy roses

Blooming over blood

Hands are shaking as we’re

planting flowers the mud

Surrender to the shaping

Let the breaking build the form

Blue prints of relationships

Are never what they show

Brick by brick we build a house of

Concrete, glass and stone

Watering the garden

of the place we will call home

Let us hold our ground

Let it come don’t chase

If it breaks us down

I let it break with grace

What if we go too deep?

What if we’re there, but don’t see?

What if we go too deep?

What if we’re already in?
