We hold a torch, for what once was For what it;s worth... It was always going to get out of hand We'll hold that torch forever more Of that I'm sure How could we let it slip from our grasp? The worst thing is that we know We're far too stubborn just to let go You say "bitter" I'm just so glad that is shows I object! I object! Out right reject... To refer to it like it's the past I refuse to speak of it as being in the past It's never been about our numbers It's all about the message It's always been about the message We're living in the now, in the darkest of town And we won't leave this place for no'one.
