Lyrics
0:21I come from far away
0:23My boots don't know this ground
0:26They know it's real
0:32It doesn't take too long
0:34The road to become
0:37A battle field
0:42And before I let one more fire go out
0:48Understand that I won't
0:49Give one inch of ground
0:53From underneath
0:54Your's and my feet
0:57Whatever the price
1:00Happens to be
1:02I may not be the keeper of
1:05The flame
1:09But I am keeper
1:26Beauty and truth collide
1:29Where love meets genocide
1:32Where laughter meets fear
1:37Confusion all around
1:39As I try to feed these mouths
1:42That never known singing
1:48And before I let
1:49One more tear hit the ground
1:53I will be the one
1:54Standing between you and
1:57The sound of the rounds
2:00Echoing out out of the dark
2:05The smoke and the spark
2:08Aimed at the heart of the flame
2:15I am the keeper
2:26I cannot see the light
2:29At the end of the tunnel tonight
2:32My eyes are weary
2:37And before I let
2:39One more life get erased
2:42From the ashes I will rise
2:45For you and the ghosts of the names
2:49Faces is an frames
2:52The love and the pain
2:54For you I remain though I'm not worthy of
3:00Being the keeper of
3:03The flame I am
3:10The keeper
3:19I am the keeper
I come from far away My boots don't know this ground They know it's real It doesn't take too long The road to become A battle field And before I let one more fire go out Understand that I won't Give one inch of ground From underneath Your's and my feet Whatever the price Happens to be I may not be the keeper of The flame But I am keeper Beauty and truth collide Where love meets genocide Where laughter meets fear Confusion all around As I try to feed these mouths That never known singing And before I let One more tear hit the ground I will be the one Standing between you and The sound of the rounds Echoing out out of the dark The smoke and the spark Aimed at the heart of the flame I am the keeper I cannot see the light At the end of the tunnel tonight My eyes are weary And before I let One more life get erased From the ashes I will rise For you and the ghosts of the names Faces is an frames The love and the pain For you I remain though I'm not worthy of Being the keeper of The flame I am The keeper I am the keeper
