lyrics

I've got two hands playing fast
I've got a brain rattling as a storm
I've got memories from my past
I've got a heater to get warm

I've got a consumed candle dying on my bedside table
Next to me.

I've got a large vase and a rose to remember you
In my dreams.

I've got a bunch of chatty Facebook friends
But I'm lonely as a dog
Sometimes I'm going round the bend
With all the energy I expend
To keep the light alive inside the fog

I've got fears to miss the boat of my life, leaving without me
I've got doubts about all I start, about all I feel, about all I see

I've got noises in my eyes, I am made of blood that I can't feel
I've got money to survive in this lousy world and I feel guilty
I've got visions of myself at the end of the road, it makes me dizzy
I've got love to give around but I'm afraid that you won't see it.
