[Intro — guitar-based reprise, signature moment one] (clean-to-driven electric guitar quoting three earlier motifs as guitar figures — the candlelight riff, a driving riff nodding to the fleet-crossing energy, and a chugging rhythm figure echoing "Bedrock and Scaffolding" — before the first verse begins) [Verse 1] (rising, resolute, full ensemble) Four hundred years, his hand still shows The crown just wears a modern coat Not a pamphlet, not a page Bacon built it stone by stone [Chorus] (big, anthemic, layered vocal harmonies, full band — not orchestral) Never finished, never done Just an order: build it on Gear in hand, a mind that sees A voice for the ground, the wild, the trees Atlantis waits for you and me [Verse 2] (building, fuller arrangement) Not just brick, and not just law Hardware, mind, and a public voice Four phases, moving as one Bedrock, scaffolding, still not done [Chorus] (big, anthemic, layered vocal harmonies, full band — not orchestral) Never finished, never done Just an order: build it on Gear in hand, a mind that sees A voice for the ground, the wild, the trees Atlantis waits for you and me [Bridge — signature moment two] (pulled back to a single hushed guitar playing the candlelight motif) By day and by candlelight Sorted, tested, brought to light No single node, no single throne Just builders, carrying it home [Instrumental Break — signature moment three] (guitars carry the braided motifs — clean-to-driven electric and acoustic guitars weaving the fleet-energy riff, the bedrock chug, and the candlelight figure together — quiet-loud dynamic shift building to a driving guitar solo, the album's biggest guitar moment rather than an orchestral one) [Final Verse] (direct address, rising) The ground don't sit across the sea It's wherever you plant your feet Pick up the tools, and start the frame The blueprint's yours to build again [Final Chorus] (biggest version of the song, full band and stacked harmonies, still guitar-driven rather than orchestral) Never finished, never done Just an order: build it on Gear in hand, a mind that sees A voice for the ground, the wild, the trees Atlantis waits for you and me [Outro] (warm fade to a single last echo of the candlelight guitar motif, closing the circle) Still waiting on builders Still waiting on you
