Adam Cave - Architect (original song)

The most painful and personal thing I've ever written and recorded. Captured with a crappy digicam and a Zoom H4n.

Lyrics:
I'd like to meet the architect
Who planned your head
And ask him how he made such a drunken mistake
Measurements that don't add up
Foundations unsafe
And I don't have the tools to stop your walls from crumbling

You stand and you sway
Caught between the reflex of your posture
And losing it entirely
I tried to be your spine
But I rarely stand proud

If only I could build you again
Start from scratch
I'd wire you up and make you glow
As you once glowed
Even through the pain of your past
But I don't have the tools to hold the weight and the strain

You stand and you sway
Caught between the reflex of your posture
And losing it entirely
I tried to be your spine
I tried, I'm sorry

I'd like to meet the architect
Who planned your head
And ask him how he made such a drunken mistake
Measurements that don't add up
Foundations unsafe
But you were still the greatest home I'll ever know

Really love this, I don't know you but this is very well done. Please record this professionally. Maybe have another version with a full band? You could really build this up into a massive crescendo
