Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Guitar]
[Am][Am][C]
[Am][Am][C]
[Am][Am][C]
[Am][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Are there no fighters left here anymore[C]
[Am]Are we the generation
we've been waiting [C]for?
Or are we [F]patiently burning,
waiting [Dm]to be sa[Am]ved?[G]
Our [Am]heroes, our icons have mellowed with [C]age
[Am]Following rules that they once disobeyed[C]
They're [F]now being led
when they used to [Dm]lead the [Am]way
[G][G]

[Chorus 1]
Do you [F]still believe in [C]all the things
that [G]you stood by be[Am]fore
Are you [F]out there on the [C]front lines,
or [G]at home keeping [Am]score?[G]
Do you [F]care to be the [C]layer
of the [G]bricks that seal your [Am]fate?
Would you [F]rather be the architect
of [G]what we might [C]create? (Go)

[Interlude 1]
[Am][Am][C]
[Am][Am]

[Verse 2]
They [Am]laid out the blueprints,
they poured down a [C]base
[Am]Concrete solutions to slow our de[C]cay
But [F]when they are gone
Who the fuck's gonna [Dm]take their [Am]place?[G]
Yeah, will [Am]it be the cynic, the critics galo[C]re?
The cli[Am]ché apathetic, passed out on the [C]floor
The [F]trusting complicit
who collective[Dm]ly ign[Am]ore
[G][G]

[Chorus 2]
Do you [F]still believe in [C]all the things
that [G]you stood by be[Am]fore
Are you [F]out there on the [C]front lines,
or [G]at home keeping [Am]score?[G]
Do you [F]care to be the [C]layer
of the [G]bricks that seal your [Am]fate?
Would you [F]rather be the architect
of [G]what we might create?

[Interlude 2]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]
[Am][Am][Am][Am]

[Bridge 1]
[Am]Don't you remember
when you were young?
And you wanted to set the world on [F]fire?
Somewhere deep [G]down, I know you [Am]do
(hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Am]And don't you remember
when we were young?
And we wanted to set the world on [F]fire?
'Cause I still [G]am, and I still [Am]do

[Bridge 2]
Make no mis[F]take,[C]
we are not a[G]fraid[Am]
To bear the [F]burden of re[C]peating
What they're [G]thinking any[Am]way
Let's raise the [F]stakes[C]
On the bet we [G]made[Am]
Let's de[F]cide to be the [C]architects
The [G]masters of our [Am]fate[G]

[Chorus 3]
Yeah, we [F]still believe in [C]all the things
that [G]we stood by be[Am]fore
And [F]after every[C]thing we've seen,
there [G]may be even [Am]more[G]
I [F]know we're not the [C]only ones
and [G]we were not the [Am]first
And [F]unapologetically we
[G]stand behind each word
[Am]
