I've been carrying the torch for hundred and something years
I've laid it out and torn it down and said aloud my fears
Can I say a decent word and say that its not real
And see your eyes adjusting now do you not what to feel
Behind a smile and a laugh
That's the deal
Looking back was I on track thinking that i know
Finding out the long way round and dragging doubt in tow
Long long time ago I let my soul ignite
Coming down upon the night the most perfect sight
