on clearer days I can see the lights from my bedroom door,
on windy nights I can smell the lake as it drifts to me from the shore
the traffic lights silently change a thousand times a day
but I'm still waiting, yeah I'm still waiting
if my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?
I can't remember exactly when this longing began
but I know it wasn't before the day you touched my hand,
laugh and shout in blissful daze and numbers are exchanged,
I'm still waiting, yeah I'm still waiting
if my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?
so put your hands where I can see them, and shut your mouth,
I know who you are, in a world void of feeling
or heart I know that we are the torches in the dark
let's break this down, let's make this count,
let's leave this one-horse town, no better time than now
let's break this down, let's make this count,
let's leave this one-horse town, no better time than now
the angels dance like feathers float,
they're here to see and to be seen,
the clock strikes two,
the music slows and each one slowly dons their wings,
once outside they all pair off
and hand in hand they leave but I'm still waiting,
yeah I'm still waiting
if my hand could block the sun, would we ever wake up?
If I turned back all these clocks would that be time enough?

Review about Torches im with MuzikChik | Reviewer: JustMe | 10/22/09
i like alot of bands buthis is the only one that i can honestly say "i like all there songs", lol, listen to them pretty much 90% of my free time, and i love the way that Tim sings about things we all go through in life so his songs are easy to relate too
Rise Against rock my socks =D | Reviewer: MuzikChik | 3/29/09
You can be a 'True' Rise Against fan, and disagree with the contention that RPM is their best album!
BUT A true Rise Against fan definitely would have heard of the album ^.^
I love this song =D
I pretty much love all RA songs, Im yet to hear them release a bad one!
well first off a true rise against fan would tell you RPM is one of their greatest albums and i highly doubt any long time rise against fan wouldn't know about torches, my friend who cant even name all their knows about this song, altogether though sick song, not the best off RPM but still damn good
This is my favorite song | Reviewer: Ben S | 10/21/07
The lyrics are just amazing. I can't believe it only has two comments (3 now). This isn't my favorite album by them, but this is an amazing song. I'm glad I found it while looking around for new music one day.
awesome | Reviewer: Luis Navarro | 6/16/07
I know what you mean this is a great song it should get more credit, revolutions per minute is the best rise against album in my opinion go get it !
Great song- not widely known | Reviewer: Andrew C | 5/2/07
This is definitely a great song. I wonder why nobody knows about it? It's nowhere, and if you ask Rise Against fans about it, they stare blankly.
Spread the word about this song! It's great!
