Lyrics:

The council preaches patience
As more worlds become consumed
Can't you see
For all their vaunted wisdom
They've abandoned you
This crisis calls for action
While there's still something to save
Think of the ones
Who look to us
Will our inaction become their graves?
From smoke and ruin
This people give their lives
So our Republic survives
Are we not guardians?
Is this not the oath we swore
To stand up for those who can't
When the threat is at our door
Are we not guardians?
When faced with tribulation
Like so many times before
We were the shield
We were the light
We took up the call to war
While our so-called protectors
Just sit back and bide their time
You have a will
You have a choice
You don't have to toe the line
From smoke and ruin
The call that goes unheard
Is this the value of our word
Are we not guardians?
Is this not the oath we swore
To stand up for those who can't
When the threat is at our door
Are we not guardians?
Will they tell of the day
When the fire came our way
And we stood by ignoring the flames
And our code was a lie
Just words to be spoken in vain
Will they tell of the day
When we all turned away
From smoke and ruin
The people call for help
Rise up, indifference is death
Are we not guardians?
Is this not the oath we swore
To stand up for those who can't
When the threat is at our door
Are we not guardians?
Are we not guardians?
Is this not our creed, our call
Our path of sacrifice
Standing watch for one and all
Are we not guardians?
