Torch Lyrics

This planet’s old, cold, dead, and crashing into us.

You gotta know I’m no “End of Days” man.
That piece doesn’t go.
Just tug at the frayed ends.
Pull it (you) apart.

No fingers.
No feelings.
I’d push the buttons,
but I can’t feel those things.

And it’s all I sing.
And it’s all icing.

Blood falls over me.
Brings me back to a distance shot in the rubber parts.
I can’t stay there.

See you inject yourself with it.




Circles and squares surround us
We need to hide.

You’re close to me
I push away.

The Circles and Squares
Are gonna collide.

Surround us..

I don't know why but this song reminds me of aliens. Circles and squares surround us like a crop circles. You're close to me, I push away ( see you eject yourself with it) like how aliens try to take over your body and mind. But maybe i'm wrong.

To me it sounds like "Get close to me" and not "You're close to me."

I love the mellow melody of this song. Just reminds me of some sunsetting drive with the top down.

I hear "get close to me.... I push away" which is a great anthem.

Yeah, that's what I hear too. Type the words out fully as they're said.

This song is definitely about playing Geometry Wars and getting really frustrated and obsessed over it. Your ship looks like it's shooting flames like a Torch, and you're attacked by Circles and Squares that surround you.

Close to me, I push away. That's the point of the game

A video game as a metaphor... These guys are just too much.
