Rise Against - Architects

[00:15.10] Are there no fighters left here anymore? [00:18.82] Are we the generation we've been waiting for? [00:21.33] Or are we patiently burning [00:23.48] Waiting to be saved? [00:27.76] Our heroes, our icons have mellowed with age [00:31.13] Following rules that they once disobeyed [00:33.32] They're now being led when they used to lead the way [00:39.68] Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? [00:46.19] Are you out there on the front lines [00:48.70] Or at home keeping score? [00:51.04] And do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? [00:56.67] Or would you rather be the architect of what we might create? [01:03.30] [01:08.37] They laid out the blueprints, they poured down a base [01:11.50] Concrete solutions to slow our decay [01:14.12] And when they are gone [01:15.49] Who the fuck's gonna take their place? [01:20.08] Yeah, will it be the cynics, the critics galore? [01:23.36] The cliché apathetic passed out on the floor [01:26.14] The trusting complicit who collectively ignore [01:33.13] Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? [01:38.85] Are you out there on the front lines [01:41.47] Or at home keeping score? [01:43.75] And do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? [01:49.19] Or would you rather be the architect of what we might create? [01:55.28] [02:06.18] Don't you remember when you were young [02:11.13] And you wanted to set the world on fire? [02:17.06] Somewhere deep down, I know you do [02:23.80] [02:26.90] And don't you remember when we were young [02:32.37] And we wanted to set the world on fire? [02:37.89] 'Cause I still am, and I still do [02:46.62] Make no mistake [02:48.98] We are not afraid [02:51.71] To bear the burden of repeating [02:54.85] What they're thinking anyway [02:57.35] Let's raise the stakes [02:59.36] On the bet we made [03:02.27] Let's decide to be the architects [03:05.47] The masters of our fate [03:07.85] Yeah, we still believe in all the things that we stood by before [03:13.38] And after everything we've seen here maybe even more [03:18.38] And I know we're not the only ones and we were not the first [03:24.18] Unapologetically we'll stand behind each word [03:30.53]
