Light the Torch
Calm Before the Storm
[Verse 1]
Looking at the shell of what you used to be
Now you wear your scars for all the world to see
(Confession)
You can never burn the stain away
(Repression)
You can't keep your own demons at bay
I'll be your calm before the storm
[Chorus]
The nights are getting colder
The days are growing long
And you do not know what you're fighting for
Come back to where you started
Come back where you belong
And I won't be your calm before the storm
[Verse 2]
I can't be the one to watch you slip away
I won't be the one who always takes the blame
(Extinction)
I can see your eyes are growing cold
(Addiction)
There is nothing left for you to hold
Come on!
[Chorus]
The nights are getting colder
The days are growing long
And you do not know what you're fighting for
Come back to where you started
Come back where you belong
And I won't be your calm before the storm
[Bridge]
I'll be! (I'll be!)
Your light! (your light!)
I'll be your light in the dark
[Bridge]
Looking at the shell of what you used to be
Now you wear your scars for all the world to see
Give in to the moment
The line is in the sand
You've got to know that
We could have it all
I am more than ready
Hold fast to what you can
Hold fast to what you can
[Chorus]
The nights are getting colder
The days are growing long
And you do not know what you're fighting for
Come back to where you started
Come back where you belong
And I won't be your calm before the storm
[Outro]
You were never abandoned
You were never abandoned
