Rise Against
Are there no fighters left here anymore
Are we the Generation we’ve been waiting for
Or are we patiently burning waiting to be saved
Our heroes are high count, and mellow with age
Following rules that they once disobeyed
They’re 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 frontlines? or at home keeping score?
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?
We laid out the blue prints, they poured down a base
Concrete solutions to slow our decay
But when they are gone who the fuck’s gonna take their place?
Yeah we’re lipping the senate, the critic’s galore
You say I’m pathetic, Passed out on the floor
The trusting complicit who collectively ignored
Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before?
Are you up there on the frontlines? or at home keeping score?
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?
Don’t you remember when you were young
how you wanted to set the world on fire
Somewhere deep down I know you do (Hey!, Hey!, Hey!, Hey!)
and don’t you remember when we were young
how we wanted to set the world on fire
cause I still am, and I still do (Hey!, Hey!, Hey!, Hey!)
Make no mistake, we are not afraid
to bear the burden of repeating what they’re thinking anyway
lets raise the stakes on the bet we made
lets 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 here maybe even more
I know we’re not the only ones, but we were not the first
Unapologetically we’ll stand behind each word.
Are we the Generation we’ve been waiting for
