AFI - Torch Song Lyrics






Oh

I saw you. Angels came to light your path.
I heard you keep their wings pressed under glass.
Now am I so enthralled that I might die?
I saw you, sweetly smile, and say "do try".

(anything)
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
(anything)
To see everything that you do.

I saw you so bereft so pale and weak
When I looked through
You and I declined to speak.
I won't say

(anything)
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
(anything)
To see everything that you do. I'd do
(anything)
I'll tear out my soul for you, my dear. oh my dear
(anything)
To feel everything as you do. I do

Anything
Anything... oh

Leave me
Leave me to grieve that nothing's lost. nothing's lost
Leave me
But when you leave me, know nothing's lost. nothing's lost

(anything)
I'd tear out my eyes for you, my dear
(anything)
To see everything that you do. I'd do
(anything)
I'll tear out my soul for you, my dear. oh my dear
(anything)
To feel everything as you do. I do

    Nothings lost. Crash❤

    There's always these "old" AFI and "new" AFI arguments and it's the same with every other band out there. It's not the band it's you. There's the "old" you and then "getting older" you who is stubborn and refuses to change to accept ever-changing art and ideas. It affects all of us, it's just a matter of openness. If you respect the artist then you respect their nature to explore and mature and change.

  3. S.... ....

    This might be the best track Jade ever laid down.

  4. C.... T....

    Listening to this song is being brave enough to remember the harsh memories that go with it. So much bitter sweetness in this song.

  5. M.... N....

    One of the most underrated songs AFI has written

  6. J.... D....

    Love it

  7. A.... S....

    As soon as I woke up with this album already in my iTunes from the preorder, with tickets in hand to see them that week, upon hearing this song to start the album, I knew I was in for something rather special. Especially when Beautiful Thieves was right after it.

  8. N.... M....

    I fucking love these guys!!!!!! Yes the exclamations are necessary.

  9. C.... ....

    Good albums/music just grow on you, and there's nothing you can do about it...

  10. T.... G....

    hate me

  11. t.... ....

    A signature Davey "oh" followed by that killer guitar opening. AFI is perfect.

  12. R.... P....

    old, new, ..... if its afi its all good

  13. a.... ....

    I think they're just too hung up on "old AFI" and don't give it a chance. To me, all AFI takes some getting used to as each album is different from the last. When I first heard Crash Love, I didn't like it, but it quickly grew on me and this is one of the best songs from it. The same goes for The Art of Drowning, I hated it and was hung up on Black Sails but now, T.A.O.D. is one of my favorite albums of all time.

  14. D.... G....

    i dont understand why people dont like this album

  15. t.... ....

    The guitar part in the beginning though. It's perf.

  16. D.... ....

    WARNING: AFI songs have that sort of affect on people. when listening to AFI brace your self for constant eargasms and other pleasurable sensations...

  17. F.... F....

    Y'know, I actually like that AFI changes their sound because it's the same artist while they can fit many different moods. XD
    And then there's also Blaqk Audio. lol

  18. D.... K....

    I agree, but 100 words is from STS era. :-D

  19. A.... ....

    And to think how they evolved since answer that and stay fashionable.

  20. N.... V....

    I've been listening to this for the past hour.

    I'm not kidding...
