[Verse]
                                Db     
Are there no fighters left here anymore
Bbm                                         
Are we the generation we've been waiting for
       Gb                  
Or are we patiently burning
        Gb         
Waiting to be saved
    Bbm                                 Db Bbm
Our heroes our icons have mellowed with ■  age
                               Gb       
Following rules that they once disobeyed
                                        Eb       Bbm Ab7
They're now being led when they used to lead the way ■  


[Chorus]
Ab              Gb      Db                         Ab             
■  Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before
Bbm         Gb       Db             
Are you out there on the front lines
      Ab                
Or at home keeping score
                Gb    Db                           Ab   Bbm      
And do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate
             Gb                              Ab             
Or would you rather be the architect of what we might create

[Verse]
                  Bbm                               
They laid out the blueprints they poured down a base
Bbm                                 
Concrete solutions to slow our decay
Gb                    
And when they are gone
                     Bbm             
Who the fuck's gonna take their place
             Bbm                             
Yeah will it be the cynics the critics galore
                                       Db   
The cliché apathetic passed out on the floor
Gb                         Ebm          Bb     Ab
The trusting complicit who collectively ignore ■ 


[Chorus]
Ab7 Ab        Gb               Db                      Ab       Bbm   
■   ■  Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before
        Gb               Db         
Are you out there on the front lines
Ab                 Bbm   Ab
Or at home keeping score ■ 
           Gb             Db           Ab                    Db  
And 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]
Bb                                       
■  Don't you remember when you were young
                                Bbm Gb  
And you wanted to set the world on  fire
               Ab              Bb   
Somewhere deep down I know you ■  do


[Chorus]
          Bb                             
And don't you remember when we were young
                                  Gb  
And we wanted to set the world on fire
               Ab     Ab7 Ab    Bb
'cause I still am and I   still do
        Gb     
Make no mistake
Dbsus4     Absus4
We are not afraid
Bbm7    Bbm      Gb                 
■    To bear the burden of repeating
             Ab7      Gb    
What they're thinking anyway
                Gb    
Let's raise the stakes
Db               Ab7  Ab
■  On the bet we made ■ 
Bbm       Gb               Db        
■   Let's decide to be the architects
    Ab7                
The masters of our fate
        Gb               Db                  Ab          Bbm   
Yeah we still believe in all the things that we stood by before
Gb        Db                         Ab         Bbm 
And after everything we've seen here maybe even more
Db       Gb                 Db            Ab              Db   
■  And I know we're not the only ones and we were not the first
Gb               Db    Ab                     Bbm7 Dbmaj7 Bbm
Unapologetically we'll stand behind each word ■    ■      ■
