Lyrics

There once was a boy who liked work outdoors

Skin fair as parchment that spilled on the floors

Out of his head grew a rope of some sort

And everyone thought him unusual of course

Oh someday his day would come

But someday was far too far.. away for a dream

To find him awake

To finally be someone or something as great

Oh Candle Boy, Candle Boy heart made of wax

Humble beginnings for destiny grand

Oh Candle Boy Candle Boy beacon of light

Soon you will shine like the stars on the darkest of nights

One day the children did not make it home

We called out their names to no answer

Darkness had come like the bite of a wolf

And drag the poor souls to the depths of the woods

Candle boy only boy brave volunteer

Foolish enough to ignore all his fears

So why did their mothers smirk

And why were we holding back... the tears from our eyes

We cried the wrong kind

What was so funny were we just as blind

Oh Candle Boy Candle Boy Heart made of Steel!

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...
