The Architects Lyrics

Ornaments in silent darkness,
the image of man now torn from its structure

The smell of need,
the dwarfed soul of man,
attuned only to flesh
suffering from frustration

Alien to our own spirits
We're naked even in death
The dawn is yet to come
to fill us with knowledge

Pulsating waves of colour,
bleeding off into the black
A whisper of red screams through the night
The architects and the flesh

Cover art for The Architects lyrics by At the Gates

The combination of things which make up soul, being and thought is vast and abstract. Although the body is a decorative shell, people have no choice but to align their needs with IT, rather than with the needs and desires of their greater self. Until death we are but flesh, after rebirth we shall be true architects and creators.

"At the Gates" : At the gates of rebirth, as far as this shell can get. As much as can be conceived by the thought machines of meat and flesh and false structure.
