Another Winter

Another winter I survived
 Another child taken down into the ground
 And though he's melted with the snow
 I'm still praying he'll be found
 But I don't want to live inside this skin
 I don't want to see who you are
 I want to know you instead
 And it's not a lot of you to ask of me
 It's the least I can do as far as I can see
 I'll carry your torch
 I'll take the blame
 I'll be the cradle for your flame
 Another cutting in your vein
 See the resignation rise into the sky
 And now I'm taking on your pain
 I'm seeing through your eyes
 But I don't want to live inside this skin
 I don't want to see who you are
 I want to know you instead
 And there's nothing new
 I still cling to destiny
 If you were here I know you'd never put this on me
 But I'll carry your torch
 I'll take the blame
 I'll be the cradle for your flame
 I'll carry your torch
 I'll take the blame
 I'll be the cradle for your flame
