The shadow falls on me today

Why can't it fade into the distance?

And darkness calls, no other way

I rage at the riddle of existence

The day's almost gone but you'll carry on

Can you keep the flame for me?

The day's almost gone but you'll carry on

Can you keep the flame for me?

A broken plan, a fleeting past

How do we always keep on trying?

A tired man, is free at last

What would the purpose be of lying?

My life's almost gone but you'll carry on

Can you keep the flame for me?

My life's almost gone but please carry on

Could you keep the flame for me?

Will you keep the flame for me?
