gruff rhys – architecture of amnesia lyrics
[verse 1]
oh, my fallen one
let complacent to the surface
and if i only could’ve been there
then i would’ve seen the urge
and i’ll carry you
through the rhetoric and sh-lls
of exploding heads and sand bags
thrown by bigots, green by blue bands
[pre-chorus]
close the batons, fill the jars
seal the windows, lock the doors
paranoia will eclipse the rational and spill
[chorus]
architecture of amnesia
scare the people with hysteria
architecture of amnesia
it’s a battle monumental
[verse 2]
and the narrative
led the hungry to the arts
with a lure of false promises, a fear of touch
and they built a world
switched on search lights on the brim
and invented their pariah, at which everyone was shouting
[pre-chorus]
close the batons, stock the drawers
seal the windows, lock the doors
take a bayonet and don’t let anybody in
[chorus]
architecture of amnesia
scare the people with hysteria
architecture of amnesia
it’s a battle monumental
[bridge]
drive of formation, alienation
drive of formation, alienation
drive of formation, alienation
drive of formation, alienation
[chorus]
architecture of amnesia
paranormal anaesthesia
architecture of amnesia
history lessons dissappear
architecture of amnesia
scare the people with hysteria
architecture of amnesia
it’s a battle monumental
