Who do you carry that torch for, my young man? 

Do you believe in anything?

Do you carry it around just to burn things down?



Meet me tonight on the turnpike, my darling

cause we believe in everything

If we sweat all these debts then we're sure to drown

so let's strap ourselves up to this engine now

With our God who we found laying under the back seat



What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing.

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say



Oh, order your daughters to ignore me think that will sort me?

and sweep me under the rug

While you're beating with a book everyone that book tells you to love



There is an ember in the heart of the kiln

And it's burning hot with love

Burning out my center till there's nothing but dust

rolling me with care into your cigarette

Cause the God I believe in never worked on a campaign trail



What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing.

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say



Who do you carry that torch for, my young man? 

Do you believe in anything?

Do you carry it around just to burn things to the ground?



What did you learn tonight?

You're shouting so loud, you barely joyous, broken thing.

You're a voice that never sings, is what I say

You are freezing over hell

You are bringing on the end, you do so well

You can only blame yourself, it's what I say



[Chorus continues in the background]

Feels like we could escape 

and I don't mind throwing away this filthy silver song

If you try running a maze of your lies

It's too hard to save if you've thrown out everyone
