Music Video of the Day #3 - Endure by Becoming the Archetype
The third music video of the day is Endure by Becoming the Archetype off their last album (they have a new one in the works btw) The Physics of Fire. If you missed it see my previous Music Video of the Day for Flyleaf’s All Around Me.
Becoming the Archetype (BtA) is a Christian heavy metal band that uses lots of very cool instrumentals in their songs. Their sophomore album had a lot more polish than their debut album and a theme of the “Fire” that burns inside all of us (At the end it’s revealed to be Jesus Christ, and yes, spoken by name. A rare thing, even from Christian metal bands), and this theme plays throughout the entire record.
Check out the music video and the lyrics below it. Love the fire effects!
Endure Music Video
This life is an open wound that will not heal
I cry out to God with all of my strength
Desperately I reach for Him in the night
This misery keeps my eyes from closing
Keeps my mouth from being able to speak
Is this as far as the arm of God extends
Has the fire burned itself out
There is no profit in this way of thinking
I must escape this frame of mind
The Source of all Creation, is inside of me
And when I think of all He has done
When I consider all that He is
I am complete (x2)
This life is an open wound that will not heal
