The Torchbearer - Theme of Keane

[Verse 1] Once upon a time in a world with no light, there was my kin and yours in an endless fight. Through the sins of my ancestor we all suffered blight, but now you're locking us away under your sense of right! [Pre-Chorus] You've sent all my people to their slaughter. Killed our land, poisoned our water. Today you stand on the edge of your end not knowing that you imprisoned your friend. [Chorus] I am the flame who guides the lost ones. I am the shield who will not break. I am the light for the daughters and sons. If only my hand you'll finally take! [Verse 2] Now comes an era of eternal miserable night reaching its most terrifying height. But now we stand together upright as we set this evil alight! [Pre-Chorus] You've sent all my people to their slaughter. Killed our land, poisoned our water. Today you stand on the edge of your end not knowing that you imprisoned your friend. [Chorus] I am the flame who guides the lost ones. I am the shield who will not break. I am the light for the daughters and sons. If only my hand you'll finally take! [Outro] And my hand you finally did take. [Instrumental] [Instrumental] [Outro]
