The Torch

No matter how old I get Or how many stones I overstep I know that I won’t forget you I’ll always hold your torch. I’ll always remember you Hearing plates smash amidst bickering fights With the same great flash and flickering lights A crippling vice, a vicegrip that keeps on lingering A riveting feeling on cold shivering nights It's kinda like our sibling rivalry's Still living inside of me, a bitter reminder we Couldn't figure a way to put the pieces together Can we complete this puzzle before you go leave me forever? Now I'm losing the weight off my back Like the sad stick figures that we scribbled with crayons Guess I'm looking for someone to put the blame on Left right here, singing the same song Really feel belittled, I miss it when we were little I'm sitting wishing you'd visit; that wish is silly to make, huh But… I guess it's just my defense For a second pretending, helping to stay strong — game on
Now I'm visiting you throwing flowers Wondering how one home broke down into three houses Told our parents you really wanted a brother — I was born Then the angels took you, now all I want is my brother; 'course Now what's crazy is I'm older than you ever were And I'm hoping you get this message in heaven, every word Rest in reverence, my respect was forever earned But just for good measure let me also let you rest assured... No matter how old I get Or how many stones I overstep I know that I won’t forget you I’ll always hold your torch no matter how old I get Or how many stones I overstep I know that I won’t forget you I’ll always hold your torch. I hold the torch that you gave me I hold the torch that you gave me… I’ll always remember you I’ll always, I’ll always…
