According to Wikipedia, several of the lyrics were changed for the New Moon version of the song. Also, the original version was heavily inspired by Cormac McCarthy's "The Road."
I've never heard the original version, but I did hear the new version before I read The Road. After I read The Road, I heard the new song again, and it all came together. It's less specific, but still recognizable! Just because he says "carry the fire" so many times, I guess. It's so good. I wish I could write like that.
