Lyrics
I think I’m missing a piece of the puzzle
I could drown when I’m just stood in a puddle
A jet black reservoir sits beneath these scars
It’s all I’ve ever known
Please applaud it’s good to know who’s below me
I keep on preaching but I’m so phony holy
I’ve been stuck on repeat
But I’m ready
I’m ready
I’m ready
It feels like a glass half empty
Is more than I’ll ever have
‘Cause I’ve been fast asleep
Standing still in a stampede
I’m breaking my back
But I’m still sinking like a stone
Yeah, it’s all that I’ve ever known
‘Cause I’ve got nothing left
And I’m still sinking like a stone
I see the smoke but I don’t move a muscle
Pretend I’m broken so you don’t burst my bubble
I look up at the stars but don’t see so far
It’s all I’ve ever known
Can you spare me all of the ceremony
Let’s not pretend because I don’t even know me
I’ve been dead on my feet
But I’m ready
I’m ready
I’m ready
This is déjà vu
But I’m a Demi God
I must’ve forgot I’m a Demi God
I always feel so blue
But I’m a Demi God
I must’ve forgot I’m a Demi God

Unique, weird, special, deep, tragic, melancholic, inspiring, sad, hopeful, hopeless, full of energy and despair, love it

[@lolicek4863]

Don't get me wrong, it's a great song. But it's not unique at all, it's like one of the most generic songs on the album

[@imoanadz]

you forget the horror part

[@cime62]

@@lolicek4863 Completely disagree, i've never hears such a song and rythm & chord progression, literally my gem in this album, I love it

[@lolicek4863]

@@cime62 good for you. I just said my opinion, but of course, you have right to have your own.

[@lolicek4863]

@@cime62 also, i agree that that bridge part is really great

[@perry4799]

You ever realize that your life is going nowhere, despite the struggle to make it through each day? I feel like this song is about that feeling mixed with the fact that we, as humans, should feel so much purpose simply because we're sentient and can do so many amazing things. We have the power to make our lives amazing and yet life feels so mundane and empty, but we're practically demigods and should feel amazing because of that.

[@mujtabaraisani7376]

nah im content with my self.

[@luiscano5416]

You really expressed what I feel with this song. You hit it rightly.

[@ChaosRoque]

This song touches my soul.

[@gtrmajor]

Best song in the album for me. How can you not vibe to this man!.

[@MrTimeSpender]

The new album is mind blowing. Not as heavy but they added new variation and depth to their songs it feels like

[@nihille]

It's insane how good this song is. It's so creative and unique. People saying this album is bland baffle me. I feel like most of those people have no idea about music and can't see nuance - without complicated riffs uniqueness just flies over their head.

[@mentaltelepathy24]

Normally I don't like slow stuff or when bands change only if they change and sound good, many bands I love are top tiers for this and Architects can sit nicely along with them. The ending piano part to this song is alot like Hurricane by 30 Seconds To Mars as well.

[@Alostwanderer88]

OMG YOU LIKE SOMETHING THATS SOOOOOOOO WEIRD? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 YOU SOUND SO COOL AND QUIRKY

[@anish1759]

the emotion and vibe I'm getting from this song is that it's about a person who had a good life, but their life's been spiralling downwards, and they're remembering the good times they had while at the same time feeling powerless to change how their life is now

[@JLG5866]

Replace " a person " by " Mankind" and you will get a closer sense of the meaning of the song. The all album is about climate change and coming doom. We are Demi god falling fast asleep, standing still in the stampede. We know whats coming but are not doing anything about it.

[@goonsquad_official]

The whole vibe of this song reminds me a lot of the band Red, primarily the chord progression and the orchestral parts.

[@ChaosRoque]

Yeah...but so much better.

[@JayPlaidBatman]

Holy shit when you said that..the song kicked in. I totally get what you mean!

[@Tashiro64]

The part with "This.. is.. deja vu.." sounds a lot like 'Between the buried and me' to me and I love it, this song is probably my favorite of the album after Little Wonder.

[@biswajitnath804]

now that u said so....i started to see the similarities now

[@Mariajosea27]

me too! thought I was the only one who noticed

[@Tcat5310]

When I return back to this song, I'm reminded of the anguish and despair of coming to terms with both my impermanence, and the rush of hope in remembering what I and all of us are fully capable of as human beings. So much has changed since then... So much beauty. So much hope. And so much fucking despair.

This doesn’t have to be your jam to be absolutely floored and marvelled at the song writing and musicianship. I should never have expected anything less from Architects. Absolutely stunning.

[@Crotes1990]

But the songwriting is pretty bland and unoriginal....

[@timytimotius4679]

How could this song not be the main thing in this album?

[@cortez31]

The piano melody gives me Saw soundtrack vibes, especially the last few seconds. Great song!

[@x0scimy0x]

Haha I can't unhear that now!

[@GimmeDopamine]

I love this one. One of my favourite tracks on the album. To me, it is talking about the pain of existence and if we could reconnect with limitless consciousness then it would evaporate. We forget our oneness and continue to exist in pain, despite our efforts to 'fix' ourselves or pursue happiness.

[@TheRodolfoVideos]

The best song from the album for sure!

[@matthewwilliams6270]

Most under rated song on the album

[@AZALEA_HG]

This is so good. This whole album is awesome. well worth the wait

[@imoanadz]

this should be a horror movie soundtrack. I can feel that creepiness from the piano part haunted me. would be interesting if Architects makes another horror song tho

[@katefun2375]

listening to this song, I have remembered RED. The same energy and mood. For me RED and your band are legendary!

[@BrokenAntelope]

Getting some Radiohead vibes from the melodies and orchestral instrumentation in this one. Love it

[@darrenorahood1566]

Nothing short of a masterpiece...I stopped everything I was doing at the moment and turned into a deer in the headlights looking state when I first heard this tune. This song is beyond moving.

[@therealkrizix]

I'm feeling some A Word Alive. I can't help it

[@sachadelanghe4337]

Queen of the damned. The background drop of this one reminds me purely of the movie queen of the damned. And it's bloody genius.

[@CDPF5]

Yes, they changed. We all did and we'll all keep doing it, but you can change and still be yourself. I think this song is the best representation of what that truly means. It's easily one of my favs from the album, really awesome.

[@TheMayeloski]

No entiendo cómo no les gusto esta canción, yo simplemente admiro como architects ha cambiado con el paso de los años, eso habla muy bien de ellos al no quedarse estancado con el mismo género una y otra vez. Tom fue un excelente compositor y cada canción que hizo es tan perfecta y eso jamás lo dudaré, pero los chicos ocupaban un cambio y este sin duda no me decepcionó. Tengo casi 10 años escuchándolos y por los siglos de los siglos así será.
