Someone lit a flame for me
In the darkest night, in the deep
They held it high so I could see
The path that I was meant to be
And now it's my responsibility
To take this fire, keep it bright
To be a beacon in the night
Not for glory, not for fame
But for the ones who know my name
And the ones who don't, they'll see the light
I am a torchbearer, I carry the flame
Not just for me, but in their name
Everyone who walked before
Everyone who opened doors
I am a torchbearer, and I won't let it die
I'll hold it high until the sky
Is filled with fires just like mine
A constellation of light divine
When I'm tired, when I'm weak
When the flame feels small and meek
I remember who I'm holding for
The ones still knocking at the door
The ones who haven't found their speak
They need to see that it's possible
That fire can be beautiful
That one small flame can light the way
For someone else's brand new day
I am a torchbearer, I carry the flame
Not just for me, but in their name
Everyone who walked before
Everyone who opened doors
I am a torchbearer, and I won't let it die
I'll hold it high until the sky
Is filled with fires just like mine
A constellation of light divine
Pass it on, pass it on
The fire grows when it is gone
From hand to hand, from heart to heart
This is how the fire starts
Torchbearer...
I'll carry it...
For you...
For all of us...
