i was born a well laid path
as sure as all the best drawn maps
and i pioneered my way
while the world around me crumbled and decayed
and i'm afraid i am the architect
of all that a moment's haste has laid to waste
here in the rubble of my regret i'll rebuild again
in time every part will be where we will intend
from the ruins of a long condemned design
i will form the plan to reconstruct this life
i will live to be something
we'll rebuild again and this time every part will be where we will intend.
