Show us the meaning of courage and zeal Oh Candle Boy Candle boy beacon of light Soon you will shine like the stars on the darkest of nights Under forest canopy thick Where the sun light peaks through the leaves and... Casted shadows thin dimly lit Looming taller on the wrong side of time It's run out There the children lie..... Sleeping Peacefully... Hey do you know where you are? Wake up it's late and you've wondered too far Steady let's walk hand in hand Candle boy said as he thought of a plan Night falling down on their heads Echoes of noises from things best unsaid New moon rising in the sky They tried to savor the last of their sight Pitch Black the warmth of a breath.. Winding it's way up the backs of their necks Circle they've been there before Too dark to run and too cold to ignore Oh is this the end of candle boy's tale His dream were so big was he fated to fail or was it the story of the ballads we sing Of unlikely heroes who give everything Oh Candle Boy Candle Boy heart made of flames Light up your wick would you show us the way Oh Candle Boy Candle Boy Champion at last Melting away for the ones you must protect "Candle boy light your wick Candle boy lead the way" Candle boy Candle boy Light the Candle Boy Candle boy Humble beginnings of destiny grand Candle boy Candle boy beacon of light Brilliantly shining like stars in the sky Oh Candle Boy candle boy heart made of steel Show us the meaning of courage and zeal Candle boy Candle boy beacon of light Brilliantly shining like stars on the darkest of nights Candle boy Candle boy heart made of ash Now all that's left is a puddle of wax Candle boy Candle boy you saved the day You'll live forever in our memories...
