lyrics

As I’m sitting upon this rock
I’m thinking about all that I’ve got
And it makes me so sad when I
Fell empty and wasted inside

I’ve been giving too many things
I can’t keep living clean

A wise man would tell you that possession don’t mean much
But when you have everything what is your crutch
I have no reason to feel dead inside
But when I look around I cannot find the light

I’ve been giving too many things
I can’t keep living clean

Approach my table and I’ll tell my tale
Lend me your attention and I will spill
I will not speak first or ignite contact
But if you approach me I’ll open like a bag

I have no reason to be dead inside
When I search there is no light
