I'm walking in their footsteps
I'm singing their old songs
Somebody blazed this trail
I'm treadin' on
I'm bent, but I'm not broken
I'm stronger than I feel
I'm made of flesh and bone
Not made of steelI'm the keeper of the flame
The teller of the story
Keeper of the flame
For the ones that came before me
For those little pilot lights, waiting to ignite
Like fireflies in the rain
Keeper of the flame
I've been burned out to ashes
Waiting for a wind
To carry me and start a fire again
Sometimes I'm just a flicker
A candle in your eye
But I swear to God
I'll never let it dieI'm the keeper of the flame
The teller of the story
Keeper of the flame
For the ones that came before me
For those little pilot lights, waiting to ignite
Like fireflies in the rain
Keeper of the flame
When I'm drowning
When I'm fighting
When I'm screaming
When I'm hiding
When I'm losing
When I'm winning
I go back to
The beginningKeeper of the flame
The teller of the story
Keeper of the flame
I'm not doing it for the glory
But for those little pilot lights, waiting to ignite
Like fireflies in the rain
Keeper of the flameI'm the keeper of the flame
Ooooh, oooh
I'm the keeper of the flame
Ooooh, oooh
