Carry The Fire Lyrics

And all we have
Are rags and bones
Just hold my hand
And don’t let go

‘Cause though the night is cold
We’ll carry the fire
And though there’s no way home
We’ll carry the fire

When the husks of men
Haunt the road
Just hold your breath
And hold fast hope

‘Cause though the night is cold
We’ll carry the fire
And though there’s no way home
We’ll carry the fire

We’ll carry the fire
When shadows hang
Like shrouds of lead
A light is shining
No wolven fangs
No walking dead
Shall quench its flame
In shuttered tombs
In shaking starts
A light is shining
The barren wombs
The broken hearts
Shall know its name

And though the night is cold
We’ll carry the fire
And though there’s no way home
We’ll carry the fire

And when my body’s cold
You’ll carry the fire
And when I’m finally home
You’ll carry the fire
