Are there no fighters left here anymore? Are we the generation we've been waiting for? Are we patiently burning, waiting to be saved?
Our heroes are icons who mellow with age Following rules that they once disobeyed But now being lead when they used to lead the way
Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before Are you up there on the front lines, or at home keeping score And do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate Would you rather be the architect of what we might create
They laid out the blueprints, they poured down a base Concrete solutions to slow our decay But when they are gone who the fucks gonna take their place?
Yeah we'll live being a cynic, the critics galore We sit apathetic, passed out on the floor The trusting complicit, who collectively ignore
Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before Are you up there on the front lines, or at home keeping score Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate Would you rather be the architect of what we might create
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 Cause 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
Yeah we still believe in all the things that we stood by before And after everything we've seen yeah maybe even more And I know we're not the only ones, but we were not the first But unapologetically we’ll stand behind each word.
