Lighter Torches - 2nd Act Lyrics

And there was a call to arms
To those who not yet earned their scars
That map light into skin
And thread compulsion through the dark

And the orders were to run
And to defy the autumn sun
To plunge swords into the sea
With hands that turn seconds to none

Less complicated than before!

And the All and Might have a ball and another pint
And cite the laughably obvious vacuity that's set upon
With a rule book lost to song

And a voice levels the trees
The small tried to sit underneath
And soldiers heeding tongues and using teeth
All deserve a silver each

But while they're calling it a score...

Those made of rage and spite stand before the slow and uninspired
And cry a laughably obvious vacuity of wine and song
In houses where they don't belong

And life
And cold
Make desire shine like gold
And sleep
And stars
Give preoccupation pause
But life and sleep and life and sleep...

And the All and Might fall asleep after one last pint
And the laughably obvious vacuity bites its tongue
To wonder where they got it from
