Every day, cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
It happened if I say it, your picture as I paint it
I have made the universe the way I wanted to
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight, playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
Kneel and pray, what's the world today?
And who's the holy one that I can kill to stay alone?
And if I take them down, will my lies be found?
Deep inside the sun, my words become a gun
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
Every day, cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight, playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
(Hold the torch)
(Feel the warmth)
(Feed the flames)
(Congregate)
To live is to lie
So light the torch
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
It happened if I say it, your picture as I paint it
I have made the universe the way I wanted to
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight, playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
Kneel and pray, what's the world today?
And who's the holy one that I can kill to stay alone?
And if I take them down, will my lies be found?
Deep inside the sun, my words become a gun
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
Every day, cry out for the pain
Doesn't matter anymore if what we say is true
Will you burn down when I ignite the torch?
In the moonlight, playing your final march
Catching fire, taking in broken hearts
To live is to lie
So light the torch
(Hold the torch)
(Feel the warmth)
(Feed the flames)
(Congregate)
To live is to lie
So light the torch

Vocalist 'Andy Black' says of this track, "This song is one of my favorites on the record and represents not only a tonal shift within the album’s narrative but also the very real and present emotion of finding yourself at the intersection of reality and chaos. “Torch” is about reaching out and finding a lifeline of truth and hope when all feels lost and freeing yourself of the negative and destructive noise that can sometimes fill our minds and bring us down. In the blackbird storyline, the torch represents a light for those who feel alone."
