Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse

Are there no fighters left here any more?

Are we the generation we've been waiting for?

 Or are we patiently burning

 Waiting to be saved?

Our heroes and icons have mellowed with age

Following rules that they once disobeyed

They're now being led

 When they used to lead the way

Chorus

 Do you still believe in all the things

 that you stood by before?

 Are you out there on the front lines

 Or at home keeping score?

 Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate?

 Or would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

Verse

They laid out the blueprints, they poured down a base

Concrete solutions to slow our decay

And when they are gone

 Who the f*ck's gonna take their place?

Will it be the cynics, the critics galore?

Cliche apathetic passed out on the floor

The trusting complicit who collectively ignore

Chorus

 Do you still believe in all the things

 that you stood by before?

 Are you out there on the front lines

 Or at home keeping score?

 Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate?

 Or would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

Bridge

Don't you remember when you were young

And you wanted to set the world on fire?

 Somewhere deep down, I know you do

And don't you remember when we were young

And we wanted to set the world on fire?

 Because I still am and I still do

 Make no mistake we are not afraid

 To bear the burden of repeating

 What they're thinking anyway

 Let's raise the stakes on the bet we made

 Let's decide to be the architects

 The masters of our fate

Final chorus

 Do you still believe in all the things

 that you stood by before?

 And after everything we've seen here

Maybe even more

 And I know we're not the only ones we were not the first

 Unapologetically we'll stand behind each word
