[F5]at o[A5]ur throa[F5]ts[E5]
[Bb5]Now...

[Verse 2]
[Bb5]Affording disregard of these
[E5]ves [Bb5]sels encountered
Take [E5]pity [Eb5]on the pre[Bb5]cious hope
and what [E5]we co[Bb5]nstruct
With [E5]vigorous [Eb5]in tent

Blueprint and design [A5]of our future,
held in [C5]our [A5]hands
Still on a path of self- [G#5]destruction
Mark our [A5]words[G5]...[F5]

[Verse 5]

[Verse 7]
It [A5]seems the only [Bb5]way to[A5]

[A5]We are the architects of

[Verse 9]
[F#5]suffering
[A5]We are the architects of
criminal [F#5]desire
[A5]We are the architects of s[F#5]uffering
