Torch Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every day cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
It happened if I say it, your picture as I paint it
I have made the universe the way I wanted to
[Chorus]
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In the moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie, so light the torch
[Verse 2]
Kneel and pray, what's the world today?
And who's the holy one that I can kill to stay alone?
And If I take them down, will my lies be found?
Deep inside the sun, my words become a gun
[Chorus]
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In thе moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To livе is to lie, so light the torch
[Bridge]
Every day cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
Every day cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
It happened if I say it, your picture as I paint it
I have made the universe the way I wanted to
[Chorus]
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In the moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie, so light the torch
[Verse 2]
Kneel and pray, what's the world today?
And who's the holy one that I can kill to stay alone?
And If I take them down, will my lies be found?
Deep inside the sun, my words become a gun
[Chorus]
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In thе moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To livе is to lie, so light the torch
[Bridge]
Every day cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
[Chorus]
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In the moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie, so light the torch
[Outro]
Hold the torch
Feel the warmth
Feed the flames
Congregate
To live is to lie, so light the torch
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch
In the moonlight playing your final march?
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie, so light the torch
[Outro]
Hold the torch
Feel the warmth
Feed the flames
Congregate
To live is to lie, so light the torch
About
This song bio is unreviewed
Genius Annotation
This song is one of my favorites on the record and represents not only a tonal shift within the album’s narrative but also the very real and present emotion of finding yourself at the intersection of reality and chaos. “Torch” is about reaching out and finding a lifeline of truth and hope when all feels lost and freeing yourself of the negative and destructive noise that can sometimes fill our minds and bring us down. In the blackbird storyline, the torch represents a light for those who feel alone.
