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 // 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.

''Beloved distant blue, one day I'll die for you
And swim in sweet serenity 'cause death is not my enemy.''
This song.... these lyrics.... bring tears to my eyes.
That distant blue, that's me and you. (meaning the earth, a blue speck in space)
it was from there that we all grew
framed in space, our first home (meaning our origin, earth is our first home before we find another)
all those beating hearts, that were made of stone, (meaning the heartlessness and psychopathy of humanity)
We were disaster built from flesh and bone (meaning our fragile nature can be devastating despite how easily broken)
their bodies made a mountain, a ladder to the stars (meaning through war and suffering we rose to where we are)
when they reached up to the sun, it only left them with scars (meaning are travels and dreams can be harmful, a reference to the story of Icarus)
all the saints and the sinners will reap what they sow (meaning the good and the bad both suffer the consequences of their actions; it doesn't matter who you are, you will always reap the deeds you sow)
so they stood back and watched their bitterness grow (meaning the greed and hate the fuels the fires of humanities anguish)
they couldn't tell the cure from disease (meaning the exploits of humanity have left us blind to the real problems in the world; every solution begs a new problem)
they no longer knew their want from their need (meaning we have lost sight of what truly matters; replaced for personal gain)
they fucked the future, forgot the past (meaning we fail to learn from our mistakes as a species)
nothing built was built to last (meaning everything we do is meant to last as long as we live, that is, a single human lifetime without giving thought to the future)
a common ground, now we see,
that connected us like the land and the sea (we are finally coming to realize that we are all the same and we all matter equally, as does the earth and it's other inhabitants.)
caught in a web, don't struggle free,
this is who we are so just let it be (meaning we are stuck where we are despite our realizations and coming to terms with who we are, a cancer to this planet, only to feel significant)
if we save ourselves we'll feel so small,
and we'll ask ourselves why we cared at all (meaning that if we rise above our flaws and better ourselves and better the world, we will see just how small and insignificant we really are and we'll ask ourselves what we were fighting for all this time).
This is what I read from these lyrics and my eyes fill with tears. For me it's true and I can't see how it is not. But I would rather feel small and insignificant than see our race destroy itself and this beautiful blue marble that we live on. Our first home but maybe not our last, let's hope we can forgive ourselves for what we have done and rise to become better people, a better race. A bettered world to live in.
I think this is a really awesome take on the lyrics. Personally I started to think that this song was about how humanity has selfishly used the resources on the earth and we're starting to destroy it. "They fucked the future, forgot the past" we've been using all the earths resources like natural gas and clean water in huge amounts without any care to how it might affect the earth, or it's inhabitants. We only care how we can make things better for ourselves and now we're slowly starting to realize that the way we're living is having a drastic effect on the world.
I really like your take on the song too and it made me rethink a lot of the lyrics. Either way, \the song is a masterpiece and I wish more people would take a look at the lyrics.
Stephen Bishop I agree. I live in Iceland so clean water is pretty much the only water we know :P - But despite our small carbon footprint we are a messy, littering, polluting nation. We don't think enough about the nature we need and instead fixate on the nature we want. A growing green grassy world replaced for a dream of damp grey concrete jungles where the only green is in the ink on bank notes.
If we don't start thinking about the future now, greed will be our downfall. Because if there's one thing I've seen so far regarding how we treat our Terra, it's that those who have the power to really change the world, don't because they will never consider it profitable.
The song really is a masterpiece (comparable to the most genius musicians in history, if we consider today's most popular music) and it really puts a smile on my face to see that people still read and interpret song lyrics, especially in the manner of finding true meaning in them. Most people tend to try and find the "composer's intended" meaning instead of giving the song their own.
This has got to be the most accurate and well thought-out deciphering of the lyrics I've ever read. I sure wish the band had made a commentary version of the whole album.
Face it, we are not worthy of this planet any longer. I love the arrangement of the lyrics, but reading them just really bums me out that even after aeons of human evolution, we have lowered ourselves to rock bottom. Literally every person on earth should hear this song, and just staple that to their minds and realize that this is not a fantasy world. Everything has limits, and we've reached ours a long time ago.
We were disaster built from flesh and bone
I think Its more to " we are the pest in Our 'First Home'. Human are the disaster for the earth."
But its Ok man everyone has their opinion.. and it mine..
whoelse still listening in 2021?
This makes me goosebumps n tears
Sam Carter vocals dude, they're out of this world.
I've always kinda believed Sam was in a league of his own. Flawless.
***** I've always thought the same. He's untouchable.
Jeremy Settle I cant think of one band that does vocals like Sam. They're undeniably incredible.
Those Hardcore Yells incorporating the clean vocals is great.
***** Bring Me The Horizon does them on their latest album Sempiternal. Jovian does them as well.
Close but no cigar. Sam is the king. Hahaha
just when you think Sam's voice can't go that next note higher, he blasts right by it. Easily the best vocalist in the genre at the moment
One of the best in any genre too!
Dan Melizan huum no
Have you heard Ronnie Radke ever? lel.
hahahahahaha NO. just NO. there are better clean vocalists out there. you aint looking hard enough
Who said we're talking purely about cleans? Matt Rose, ex-Monuments, had INCREDIBLE cleans but his roughs didn't cut it so for an example, Sam is a better vocalist all round than Matt
I have one single complaint about this album.....THERE AREN'T ENOUGH SONGS. THIS ALBUM WAS SO GOD DAMN PERFECT AND NOW IM SO SAD THAT ITS OVER.
A perfect example of how metal can be deep, beautiful and yet still truly heavy at the same time. I love how Sam Carter sings like he means every word and says something really important in his lyrics. The whole ethos behind the band is really inspirational.
This song is insanely under-rated, this song is on another level. Easily my favourite song off the album!
Easily the BEST they've done imo!
The BLEGHST
This is my favorite album of theirs, and every song on it is good, but this one is probably my least favorite on the album. Still good, just doesn't grab me like the rest of the album
R.I.P. Tom
You will be greatly missed.
"They fucked the future, forgot the past.
Nothing built was built to last."
Oh man...
And the way he screams it...Oh maaaaan...
such harsh words yet so real.
I love how he sings "framed in space, our first home" gives me chills everytime.
One of the few bands that still have my respect. Architects never gave in to any fads or trends that were around them. They always stick to their own sound and for that they never disappoint me.
Totally agree. In comparison with some other popular rock group Architects still makes a very emotional, aggressive and strong metal music.
This didn't age well 😂
Probably alone on this when I say it but.. This & the newest album "All our gods have abandoned us" are in my opinion their best albums. I love the direction they took. Literally everything is perfect. The singing, uncleans, instruments, lyrics, ambience, everything.. I love the old shit, but please more of this direction.. Also rip Tom..
I also think it's their best album. The lyrics are insanely well written, and some songs are hauntingly relevant in the hindsight of Toms death...like Gravity and Memento Mori.
And "Gone With The Wind" of course, that one really got me..
Selfish Eyes i think we can all agree that they were both amazing albums. i cant choose which i like more. lost forever lost together is more about currupt governments and some stuff about god, while all our gods have abandon us is about god
Actually the gods they refer to are the celebrities people are so obsessed with,Sam mentioned that a lot in the latest interviews,giving an example of how people are more interested in what Kim Kardashin had for breakfast rather than being focused on the problems of the society.Sure,religion has always been one of their targets,but they target the bad and hypocritical side of it,not god or buddah or whatever.also Tom stated in one of their blog posts that they don't hate religion,or religious people at all
Those are definitely their best albums. I would even say that "Lost Forever, Lost Together" is the best album in the history of music!
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.
2:16-3:07 That vocal! :O OMG, Sam!
The most powerful minute in my life!
no kidding, i keep that part on repeat, fukin awesome
Leonid Vdovichenko i did a vocal cover of this song, well only the last part, check it out here :) /watch?v=LDvtPGmF2ME
Michael Davis i did a vocal cover of this song, well only the last part, check it out here :) /watch?v=LDvtPGmF2ME
Leonid Vdovichenko Shit gives me chills
This comment doesn't even mean a fraction of what I feel now. This band makes it worth for me to make music, improving every single time and blowing my mind completely with each album. Never had such goosebumps on every song of an album, my eyes even went all watery... Keep doing this Architects. For me, you guys are now the best band on this entire planet.
i agree
That distant blegh...
More relevant in 2020 then ever
@@lalkaal Exactly lol
Sam blew my mind at 2:20 .... Just wow
One of the most important and powerful songs ever to hit the metalcore scene. I'm still in love with this song.
Epitaph certainly has the best live bands of the last 5 years easily. Stoked to see these guys in may.
What a FUCKING MASTERPIECE of a song. Sam's performance is otherworldy .
That ending hits me even more than These Colours Don't Run.
I could not think of a better ending to a masterpiece, this album is beyond amazing 5/5*
Gianlucca Coloma i did a vocal cover of this song, well only the last part, check it out here :) /watch?v=LDvtPGmF2ME
This album is so moody. Full of emotions. I am not really a metalcore fan but this album is just brilliant!
3:08 UNTIL THE END
THIS IS WHAT PERFECT SOUNDS LIKE
exactly my thoughts

in love with this entire album
This is their year. This album is 1000000/10 !!!
Every song is beautifully structured. Hopefully there's some bonus tracks when I buy the album :D
At last Architects remember that they were once an amazing band. A true return to form.
Fucking hell, did this masterpiece end already? Shit, that was amazing.
Going to be honest here, I was hoping for BMTH's album Sempiternal to sound like this. Luckily, you guys pulled it off amazingly and I'm now a fan! :D Go Architects!
I am so glad I have pre ordered this album. It is totally worth paying for. If you're looking for something to spend your money on, buy this album. You won't regret it. I was sure from the moment they announced the album that they won't disappoint. Now, after hearing the songs, I was proven right. The instrumental is great, the lyrics are brilliant, the vocals are chilling. There isn't a single thing that I dislike about this album. Great job, guys. Never stop doing what you're doing. It feels so good to have another album that makes me happy to be alive and able to listen to it.
First lines inspired in Carl Sagan "Pale Blue Dot" i think. Mad respect for this band!
This song is so great. That ending even after years... Love it
Perfect way to end the album! So much respect for Architects, seen them grown since Ruin and I hope they never stop making music!
Seriously, I don't know how they managed to pull this off! This is just beyond amazing. I couldn't find a single thing I didn't like about this album. Huge respect for them!
Definitely one of my favorite Architects songs.
Ahhh fuck its over :( this is one of these albums that can go on forever and ever and never ever get sick
That was an amazing album when came out, now, some years later it gives me a nostalgic feeling which makes me like it even more.
Beloved distant blue // One day I'll die for you
And swim in sweet serenity // ‘Cause death is not my enemy
This song never gets old...
never will be...
I'm delighted with this track, with this band, I love vocals - they are perfect for that genre for me. Simply amazing.
this is such an amazing album
its my favourite album of 2014 so far and i dont think anything else this year will be as good as this masterpiece
This is one of the few album closers that I absolutely loved. Such a goosebump-inducing song. Legendary album
This is definitely their best album overall
That distant blegh
That's me and ya.
My most favourite song from the album. Architects still show us high quality music. Hope to watch them soon in Kiev.
I honestly thought, until I saw a live performance on youtube, that they had two singers. Usually harsh vocalists like that, at least the ones I've listened to, don't do clean vocals at all. Just a great band over all.
This is just beyond beauty. AMAZING.
streat carp i did a vocal cover of this song, well only the last part, check it out here :) /watch?v=LDvtPGmF2ME
The lyrics are something so beautiful. Shivers.
these are like little devils who spew out their deep dark and negative fears and thoughts and send out cries for help. blissful
The lyrics to every song just hits home.
This album is musical perfection. *repeat*
Seeing these guys a week on Saturday can't wait its gonna be amazing
this song is too much amazing for this few number of reproductions T-T, this band is just brilliant
That distant blue, that's 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, that's 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.
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.
Ask ourselves why we cared at all.
Why we cared at all.

" Dying is Absolutelly Safe " just brought me here...
anyone else?
so beauty
this song makes me cry every day
I'm most definitely purchasing this album come payday, quite easily one of the best albums I've listened to in a while
This song saved the album,it needed to have incorporated more melodic singing and synths like Daybreaker.But they are ARCHITECTS and I will always love their music
Agreed, this felt more like an angry album as opposed to Daybreakers which had it's fair share of cool calm sections and vocal melodies but nonetheless, this album rocked.
Un cierre con broche de oro para este álbum, se nota la madurez de Architects, los amo chicos.
I wish i could become these vibrations after this life. Incredible!
you will
i belive, but there's an opinion "hope is a prison"
Boris Popov time will tell
4:05 i die every time i hear sam's voice, its too amazing :')
This and Broken Cross are the best tracks on this album :)
***** Those are mine best tracks but now I'd add Gravedigger too!
Naysayer and colony collapse
Architects is one of the best band ever!
MY GOSH. I'd think Sam would've completely destroyed his vocal chords forever if he didn't make entire albums and tour relentlessly singing like this. This guy's something else.
4 years has passed and his vocals still amazing, this guy is the best vocalist in the genre
Definitely buying this!
breathtaking... I am speechless, amazing! I love this band more and more)))
The vocals are amazing
This blows Sempiternal out of the water
Brendan Bovay Architects better band and better fanbase
Bullshit, every architects show I've been to people have always said how bad bmth are
Brendan Bovay I enjoy bmth some but you are correct. Architects is more structured and more powerful.
Architects are objectively superior, but the two bands are close friends. Sempiternal is also hella awesome on its own anyways.
Lol fuck BMTH.
this album is so flawless but it just isn't long enough, hopefully there's 11 bonus tracks too ;D
I always get goosebumps, when Sam starts to sing at 0:25.
Great album
I still love this track after seeing them in bristol they are an amazing band.....
You cant compare Sam's vocals to anyone elses.
5 minutes well spent.
Oh man them Hollow Crown vibes
Outstanding
Any one else getting a real Lovecraft feel from this?
By Lovecraft, I mean the novelist who gave the idea of a cosmic horror story.
Too perfect
this album.... no words. My only complaint is that it isn't longer!
omg that voice!
This is what we've got, so just let it Reee
Amazing
Am I already at the end? Aw. :c This album is fuckin' awesome.
First Sempiternal by BMTH, now this...Epitaph guys you're doing it well!
Having trouble getting into Sempiternal or any BMTH music in general but Architects always brings it home!
Still so good.
i liked it, this song is amazing, this album is amazing
This song is amazing. Still hoping they would play it sometime live :\
Capone Genesis i did a vocal cover of this song, well only the last part, check it out here :) /watch?v=LDvtPGmF2ME
Easily their best album. It's gonna be hard to do anything better than this.
their bodies made a mountain, a ladder to the stars // When they reached up to the sun, It only left them with scars
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.
This is a great song.
my fav
i would buy this on cd.
wow...this band is truly underrated. This is a great album right here Lost Forever // Lost Together. I love music like this. Being a white man in the 21st century, I have few rights and have to face anti-white criticism from many corners of society(i live in the USA btw). Life isn't easy and i've had to deal with many unpleasant things in life but, music by bands like this one and many others helps make it worthwhile
Damn this song is slick
that tasted blue!
should have a video
Nobody but the few would comprehend a video of this...
Who's here after listening to Dying Is Absolutely Safe?
