The Keeper featuring Alain Johannes
I come from far away
My boots don't know this ground
But they know it's real
It doesn't take too long
For this road to become
A battlefield
And before I let one more fire go out
Understand that I won't give one inch of ground from beneath
Yours and my feet whatever the price
Happens to be I may not be the keeper of
The flame
But I am the keeper
Beauty and truth collide
Where love meets genocide
Where laughter meets fear
Confusion all around as I try to feed these mouths
That have never known singing
And before I let one more tear hit the ground
I will be the one standin between you and the sound of the rounds
Echoin out out of the dark
The smoke and the spark
Aimed at the heart of the flame
I am the keeper oooooooooooo ooo
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
The faces and 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 yeah
I am the keeper oooooooooooo ooo
Yeah
Ooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooo
Oooooooooooooo ooooo oooooooooooooo…
