Architects - The Sky, The Earth & All Between Lyrics






Elegy


I've done enough
To figure out that nobody can take this feeling
I'm looking up, it's clear now
I suffered but it gave me meaning
You had me burnt at the stake but I'm alive, I'm awake
Living without you
I took the fire to the fuse

'Cause I gave you all a part of me
I found you at the murder scene
You questioned my integrity again, again, again
But I rose above the gravity
The sky, the earth and all between
You've written out my elegy again, again, again, again

My head is f*cking haunted
They're coming for my soul
You've taken everything you wanted
But did you consider the toll?
Hell no
A guilty conscience?
I doubt that you'd ever had one
I see you Dracula, burning out in the cold sun
Maybe you're too unaware, violent animal
Living but dead to the world

'Cause I gave you all a part of me
I found you at the murder scene
You questioned my integrity again, again, again
But I rose above the gravity
The sky, the earth and all between
You've written out my elegy again
Written out my elegy again, again, again, again

Sweet Jesus, don't leave us
Don't tear us into pieces

(You'll)
You'll sit before my throne
That's all you're good for
Don't grieve, not for me
Set free, nothing off the record
Spare me the third degree
I'll break every stone that you throw

Will you ever hear the end of me?
I soaked you in the gasoline
I'll never need an enemy again, again, again, again

Whiplash


Move
Come on, move

Can we ready ourselves for the outrage?
Have they got you in an iron lung?
Every rodent wants to live in a gilded cage
'Til the soldiers come and take your tongue

They say move, move
F*ck you if you disapprove
You're doomed too
Quit talking like you're bulletproof

Is the world done f*cking around?
We bow to the crown
Dripping in blood, lit under halos
Welcome here in the crowd
We're safe and we're sound
But who gives a f*ck unless you're one of us?

Move, move
Move, move (come on, yeah)
F*ck you if you disapprove

Did you bury you neighbor in the earthquake?
Were you sitting by a smoking gun?
Light a fire in the shrine, we're the absolute
Christ preaching to the f*cking scum

They say move, move
F*ck you if you disapprove
Doomed youth
You're f*cking lying if you tell the truth

Is the world done f*cking around?
We bow to the crown
Dripping in blood, lit under halos
Welcome here in the crowd
We're safe and we're sound
But who gives a f*ck unless you're one of us? (Yeah)

Echoes of a recent past
All tears when the culture starts to crash
Will you ever ask
Was I built for the whiplash?
To the holy rats
And all the prophets they attract
Will you ever ask
Was I built for the whiplash?

Was I built for the whiplash?
Was I built for the whiplash?
Was I built for the whiplash?
Bitch

Got something to say? What?
You motherf*cker, yeah
Quit talking like you're bulletproof

Is the world done f*cking around?
We bow to the crown
Dripping in blood, lit under halos
Welcome here in the crowd
'Cause we're safe and we're sound
But who gives a f*ck unless you're one of us?

Oh my god
(Everything is going to be fine)

Do you disapprove?
Motherf*cker

Yeah, you're pissed, are you?
No, f*cking look at me, look at me, live
Not as pissed as I am, you f*cking are, donkey

Blackhole


Is there nothing but the cold at the center of a blackhole?

The signal fire's gonna burn out
Through the sirens and the flares
I was swallowed by the storm clouds
Hail stones on a glass house
There were diamonds in the air
And the oxygen left my chest

Lost souls trapped beneath this ceiling
It's figure eight 'til the ghosts have been laid to rest
Pull it tight, try to stop this bleeding
Stampede as the horrors run through my head

Death stared and I died a thousand times
Nightmares left a riot in my mind
Is today so hollow if there were no tomorrow?
Midnight, we cut the power lines
No light but the fire in my eyes
Is today so hollow if there were no tomorrow?

Sick of living with the pain now
Someone take me for repair
There's a bitter taste in my mouth
In the silence there was ill health
Maybe life just isn't fair
Maybe I'm just f*cking self obsessed

Don't say I gotta chase this feeling
Bullets hit but it's only gonna dent the vest
Wartime with the whole world sleeping
Bombs drop on the prison hope built instead

Struck down
Souls carried through an unknown universe
No service for the faithless
Everything turns to dust

Death stared and I died a thousand times
Nightmares left a riot in my mind
Is today so hollow if there were no tomorrow?
Midnight, we cut the power lines
No light but the fire in my eyes
Is today so hollow if there were no tomorrow?

There were diamonds in the air
And the oxygen left my chest
Is there anybody there?
I pray that I'll be blessed

Heaven to Earth
God only knows if we're here in spirit
Chapter and verse
There's nowhere to go when the sky is the limit

Reign
Reign

Is there nothing but the cold at the center of a blackhole?

Heaven to earth
God only knows if we're here in spirit
Chapter and verse
Nowhere to go when the sky is the limit

Everything Ends


I started looking for a new way out
Stranded on an island
There's nothing but the ocean now
Every second is a battleground
Over the horizon, can anybody hear me shout?

When I try to pick a fight
Know that I was going under
And if it don't feel right
Blame it on the weather
It's another night breathing into blood and thunder
Tell me how I'm meant to pretend

I could be the last one killing the pain
Changing like the seasons, wishing for rain
Don't stand me up to reason all over again
'Cause I'm dying here but everything ends

If I'm left alone, I'm bound to drown
Don't you hear the silence, broken by the siren sound?
If I swim, they'll only drag me down
I'm tired of the violence, it's hard to get my head around

When I try to pick a fight
It's only 'cause I'm going under
And if it don't feel right
I'll blame it on the weather
It's another night breathing into blood and thunder
Castles only I can defend

I could be the last one killing the pain
Changing like the seasons, wishing for rain
Don't stand me up to reason all over again
'Cause I'm dying here but everything ends
I could be the last one killing the pain
Changing like the seasons, but wishing for rain
Don't stand me up to reason all over again
'Cause I'm dying here but everything ends

If I fall too far, and I live this down
Like a dying star, it's over and out
I drop my guard, then I hit the ground
No rain drops will heal the drought

I could be the last one killing the pain
Changing like the seasons, but wishing for rain
Don't stand me up to reason all over again
'Cause I'm dying here but everything ends

Everything ends, everything ends
Everything ends
Yeah, I'm dying here but everything ends

Brain Dead


[ Featuring House of Protection ]

Brain dead

I've been finding bliss in the apocalypse
Guess I'll be vomiting 'til I get my fix
F*ck all this, I oughta call it quits
Doctor, doctor, this is so traumatic

You'll never be an astronaut
You'll never lay your hands on the treasure
You're nothing but an afterthought
The sooner you get it, the better

Higher than a kite, yeah, I'm lighter than a feather
(Stay away, stay away, stay the f*ck away)
Wired every night then I steal it from another day
(There's been a robbery)
Tired of the fight but I'm hyper from the terror
(Stay away, stay away, no apologies
Bury those heads and we can all be brain dead)

We can nail ourselves on to a crucifix
We'll all go on and go, 'cause we're hypocrites
Ain't it bliss living in ego trips
Jesus christ, I must be symptomatic

There's nobody that can't be bought
Can anybody handle the pressure?
Like living on a life support
But worried to death 'bout the weather

Higher than a kite, yeah, I'm lighter than a feather
(Stay away, stay away, stay the f*ck away)
Wired every night then I steal it from another day
(There's been a robbery)
Tired of the fight, but I'm hyper from the terror
(Stay away, stay away, no more prophecies)
Bury those heads and we can all be brain dead

(Hey) we are the sons of daughters
Drowning ourselves under the shallow waters
Taking the lambs to slaughter
We won't be happy 'til we're drawn and quartered
(No, no) an error in the source code
(No, no) and now we're dancing to the death throes
An error in the source code (hey)
Ah, yeah, an error in the source code

Evil Eyes


Evil eyes
They're watching me
Evil eyes
They're watching me

Malicious
You pray that the comet hits
So vicious
No less than a counterfeit
Goodbye
I've suffocated too long so now it's goodbye
These moments are mine

Tonight, the fear in the scythe
A spear through the side
Could drown me but I survive
Tonight, tonight, tonight, I feel alive

Evil eyes
They're watching me
Evil eyes
They're watching me

You're baseless
I see the fangs, you f*cking snake
Just business
You devil, you hypocrite
Goodbye
I've suffocated too long so now it's goodbye
I've suffocated too long

Rip tide, pull me under
And bathe me in the blue
Rip tide, pull me under
Just pull me under

Tonight the fear in the scythe
A spear through the side
Could drown me but I survive
Tonight the fear in the scythe

A spear through the side
Could drown me but I survive

Can I take this weight?
Leave it in another empty lake
I'm daydreaming, wide awake
Waiting for another wave to break
I swear to God, I'm gonna break these chains
I don't wanna live my life this way
I'm still screaming, wide awake
Waiting for another wave to break
I'm still screaming

I'm still screaming

Tonight, the fear in the scythe
A spear through the side
Could drown me but I survive
Tonight, tonight, tonight, I feel alive

Evil eyes
They're watching me

Landmines


I'm never gonna send the emptiness away
I'm tired of climbing up the walls
God, I need those chemicals
When I don't wanna feel it
No higher meaning when my bones begin to break
But if I turn myself to stone
Could I be better off alone?
I'd listen to my head but I'd be dead this time tomorrow

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines

Yeah
I'm skipping over landmines

Still got a feeling there's a hell that I've erased
It's like the fire took it all
But I still won't take the call
'Cause I don't wanna hear it
Too busy thieving all the time that I'm awake
I'm on another episode
Where the good gets overthrown
And none of us believe it

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything is alright

Another couple strikes then I'm out
These punishments were made to measure
Drowning flowers in the depth of a drought
Doomed to repeat until the end of never

Like choking up the ocean
Don't set me off 'cause I know myself
I'm close enough to broken
So come and cut me open
I could spend a lifetime skipping over landmines
Building on a fault line
Walking into headlights
I'm skipping over landmines
Like everything'll be alright

Judgement Day


[ Featuring Amira Elfeky ]

Yeah
Yeah

Escape from your reality
I am not your enemy
Don't be afraid
Asleep under the guillotine
Promise I won't make a scene
Let's just play pretend

Was I too sedated to feel?
I promise I can hear you now
'Cause you've waited
You believe in the God I fear

Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day
Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day

Unapologetically
Messing with my chemistry
Fading away
Don't you think it's heavenly
Dying right in front me
Repeating amen

Was I too sedated to feel?
I promise I can hear you now
'Cause you've waited
You believe in the God I fear

Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day
Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day

Numb machines
And death row dreams
(Reign supreme)

Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day

Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day
Rain, rain, go away
Leave me in binary
They say, it's okay
It's only judgment day

Broken Mirror


Some days I'm a tidal wave
Still lakes never leave a trace
I'm overcome but I don't wanna run
Light fades but the shadows stay
No grace in the breaths I take
I've had enough of staring at the sun
Ohh-oh-oh

You wouldn't wanna read my mind
You wouldn't wanna stand beside me
When I'm living on the edge

Take me to the place where the heavens are haunted
And I'll pray to the cross you bear
Tell me, if I gave you the world, would you meet me there?
Do you see me now? The lights are out
I'm a broken mirror

No sleep in the bed we made
Two saints and a hand grenade
Forever numb, a cry to anyone
Ohh-oh-oh
Highways over shallow graves
Cold rain down a window pane
I gave you doves but held on to the gun
Ohh-oh-oh

You wouldn't wanna read my mind
You wouldn't wanna stand beside me
When I'm living on the edge

Take me to the place where the heavens are haunted
And I'll pray to the cross you bear
Tell me, if I gave you the world, would you meet me there?
Do you see me now? The lights are out
I'm a broken mirror

These shattered lives
Reflections scattered
Pieces in your eyes

Take me to the place where the heavens are haunted
And I'll pray to the cross you bear
Tell me, if I gave you the world, would you meet me there?
Do you see me now? The lights are out
I'm a broken mirror

I found you on the other side
I tried to put it all behind me
I think about it all the time
I dream about the end
You wouldn't wanna read my mind
You wouldn't wanna stand beside me
Hear me now, I'm crying out
I'm a broken mirror

Curse


I sold myself on paradise
But I'm giving up on that ghost
'Cause it keeps me from counting the cost
Moments I've loved and I've lost
Bow down to the splits in the seconds

Did I suffer on? Were the nights too long?
All the echos all so miscalculated
When I'm dead and gone, and the race is won
Will everything be less complicated?

I give you my word
In the times I've had enough
I still wish for the worst
As free as a bird
But the days keep crossing off
Heaven came with a curse

I'm frozen here, I'm paralyzed
Would you pull it outta my throat?
'Cause I'm tired of burning these boats
Praying to God that I float
Bow down to the splits in the seconds

I give you my word
In the times I've had enough
I still wish for the worst
As free as a bird
But the days keep crossing off
Heaven came with a curse

I won't pretend to know my end
The credits roll, I'm afraid it's
The end of the earth
'Cause the days keep crossing off
(Heaven came with a curse)

You give me a conscience, I'll give you a crisis
Hard times but I'd rather see this than be blinded
Breakdown what's behind us
Darkness only cares what the light does

I give you my word
In the times I've had enough
I still wish for the worst
As free as a bird
But the days keep crossing off
Heaven came with a curse

I give you my word
In the times I've had enough
I still wish for the worst
As free as a bird
But the days keep crossing off
Heaven came with a curse

I won't pretend to know my end
The credits roll, I'm afraid it's
The end of the earth
'Cause the days keep crossing off
(Heaven came with a curse)

Seeing Red


Rent free living in your head
"R.I.P" they commented
I felt it when they said
(We only ever love you when you're seeing red)

Seeing red

You oughta know that I'm like a broken machine
I'm not as bulletproof as you all paint me to be
Time hasn't frozen
Why do you want me to scream?
Are you a junkie punk medicating for free?

(We're all you need)
(We'll make you royalty)
(We'll be the best of enemies)

Read me all my rights
I'll never grow tired of your great advice
Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
I'm sorry for your sacrifice
I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
Won't somebody tell me
Won't somebody tell me
What I believe?

No debts, all love, I don't give a f*ck
My head, my heart wouldn't be enough
I won't think twice
I'm afraid I'm the priest
You're the poltergeist

We're like one big family
Gee, thanks so much (for the death threat)
Do you hear the audacity?
You dummies only live (on the internet)

We're all (oh, yeah?)
You need (that's right)
We'll make you royalty (gimmie that gold)
We'll be the best enemies

Read me all my rights
I'll never grown tired of your great advice
Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
I'm sorry for your sacrifice
I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
Won't somebody tell me
Won't somebody tell me
What I believe?

(Are you happy now?)

Rent free living in your head
"R.I.P" they commented
I felt it when they said
"We only ever love you when you're seeing red"

Heaven burning bright
You've really gotta wonder how I sleep at night
Won't somebody tell me
Won't somebody tell me

Read me all my rights
I'll never grown tired of your great advice
Won't somebody tell me what I believe?
I'm sorry for your sacrifice
I guess I must've sounded like the Anti-Christ
Won't somebody tell me
Won't somebody tell me
What I believe

All eyes on me

Chandelier


Outta luck, beaten up
Living under thunder clouds, all around
Can anybody take me home?
And cure me of these aching bones?
Weaker now, can't you tell?
Freezing in a broken shell by myself
Spinning into vertigo
Driving when my eyes are closed

Was I dead or was I dreaming?
I stopped breathing
When all I really needed was this feeling
No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier
If I begged you and I pleaded
I don't mean it
Nobody can hear the words that I'm screaming
No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier

Chandelier

Half asleep, don't you see?
Everything so incomplete, bittersweet
Just tell me how to break this code
Don't you see the bruises glow?
Window seat, hell beneath
Frozen but I feel the heat, burning deep
Somebody tell me where the angels go
And save me from the dead, we rose

Was I dead or was I dreaming?
I stopped breathing
When all I really needed was this feeling
No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier
If I begged you and I pleaded
I don't mean it
Nobody can hear the words that I'm screaming
No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier

Chandelier
Chandelier
Chandelier
Chandelier
One less light on the chandelier

Was I dead or was I dreaming?
I stopped breathing
When all I really needed was this feeling
No more lies if I disappear
Just one less light on the chandelier

The Sky, the Earth & All Between is the eleventh studio album by British metalcore band Architects. Produced by former Bring Me the Horizon keyboardist Jordan Fish, the album was released on 28 February 2025 via Epitaph Records.

The album follows up on the band's previous studio album, The Classic Symptoms of a Broken Spirit (2022), and is the first without lead guitarist Josh Middleton since All Our Gods Have Abandoned Us (2016), who amicably departed the band in 2023 due to creative differences. The album's title is lifted from a lyric on the opening track "Elegy".

On 19 November 2024, the band officially revealed The Sky, the Earth & All Between as their eleventh studio album scheduled for 28 February 2025. Alongside the announcement, they released the album's third single "Whiplash" with a music video. On 14 January 2025, the fourth single "Blackhole" was released which was accompanied by a cinematic music video. In the week preceding the release, the band released two singles 48 hours apart from each other, "Everything Ends" on 24 February, and "Brain Dead" featuring House of Protection on 26 February.

The album has been sonically described as metalcore, and alternative metal.

The Sky, the Earth & All Between charted in the Top 10 in several countries worldwide, including Australia, Germany and their native United Kingdom.

In their home country, the album debuted at number two on the UK Albums Chart with 17,700 album equivalent units, only beaten to the top spot by Sabrina Carpenter's Short n' Sweet. However, it became the band's second top ten album and their biggest ever first week sales in the UK, topping the UK Albums Downloads Chart and the UK Rock & Metal Albums Chart.
