Clive Haunt - The Torch

I hold the torch that you gave me
I hold the torch
I hold the torch that you gave me
I hold the torch
No matter how old I get
Or how many stones I overstep
I know that I won't forget you
I'll always hold your torch
I'll always remember you
I'll always remember you
I'll always remember you
I'll always, I'll always
Hearing plates smash amidst bickering fights
With the same great flash and flickering lights
A crippling vice, a vicegrip that keeps on lingering
A riveting feeling on cold shivering nights
It's kinda like our sibling rivalry's
Still living inside of me, a bitter reminder we
Couldn't figure a way to put the pieces together
Can we complete this puzzle before you go leave me forever
Now I'm losing the weight off my back
Like the sad stick figures that we scribbled with crayons
Guess I'm looking for someone to put the blame on
Left right here, singing the same song
Really feel belittled, I miss it when we were little
I'm sitting wishing you'd visit, that wish is silly to make, huh
But… I guess it's just my defense
For a second pretending, helping to stay strong — game on
Now I'm visiting you throwing flowers
Wondering how one home broke down into three houses
Told our parents you really wanted a brother, I was born
Then the angels took you, now all I want is my brother; 'course
Now what's crazy is I'm older than you ever were
And I'm hoping you get this message in heaven, every word
Rest in reverence, my respect was forever earned
But just for good measure let me also let you rest assured
I hold the torch that you gave me
I hold the torch
And I carry it with me
No matter how old I get
Or how many stones I overstep
I know that I won't forget you
I'll always hold your torch
No matter how old I get
Or how many stones I overstep
I know that I won't forget you
I'll always hold...
I'll always remember you
