I woke up covered in sand.
Feeling rotten, nostalgic.
With this burning pain on my back.
Felt the candles fade away.
Darkness seeps in.
They say "Rats desert the sinking ship."
To find glory in the setting sun.
But I'll never burn out. I'll never sink.
Get your heart fired up.
Catch the head winds for your sails.
Brace the storm.
The mist has faded away.
I got a reason to burn this torch.

We always crawl.
We can't turn back the clock.
What's on the other side and before our eyes?
The path you have to take is not the same as yesterday.
A stranger lights a fire to the rope.
That rushes me to my grave.
I've come so close again and again.
But I've pushed it away.
The sun rises, the stars will fade.
Found my excuse to look at the sky.
We'll never burn out. We'll never sink.
We'll be as one, so light the torch.
We'll never burn out. We'll never sink.
Let it burn.
Lead us with this torch.
Move along even if you tear the ground.
Keep the will to change.
You can crawl even over broken glass.
To rise above your fate.
Just Go.
We got a chance to change.
Where there's a will, there is a way.
With or without you.
*
We'll be as one.
Light the torch.
Never burn out.
Never sink.
We always crawl.
