Chris Cornell - The Keeper Lyrics
I come from far awayMy boots don't know this groundBut they know it's realIt doesn't take too longFor the road to becomeA battle fieldAnd before I let one more fire go outUnderstand that I won't give one inch of groundFrom underneath your's and my feetWhatever the price happens to beI may not be The Keeper of the flameBut I am The KeeperBeauty and truth collideWhere love meets genocideWhere laughter meets fearConfusion all aroundAs I try to feed these mouthsThat never known singingAnd before I let one more tear hit the groundI will be the one standing between you and the sound of the roundsEchoing out, out of the darkThe smoke and the sparkAimed at the heart of the flameI am The KeeperI cannot see the lightAt the end of the tunnel tonightMy eyes are wearyAnd before I let one more life get erasedFrom the ashes I will riseFor you and the ghosts of the namesThe faces and framesThe love and the painFor you I remain, though I'm not worthy ofBeing The Keeper of the flameI am The KeeperI am The Keeper
