gold in a brass age

Singer:david gray

in search of sleep

i close my eyes

my head is filled with buzzing flies

i don't know if you realize

how much it means

pray tell me where that feeling went

i gave my best by accident

in vain i strive to represent

how much it means

how much it means

how much it means

now i'm lost for words

my mind fast forwards

it's gone the moment i reach towards

gets crowded up on top

i'm still trying to hold it up

these people who have lost their faith

who speak of love but play it safe

arise you fools

the day is brief

don't you see how much it means

how much it means

how much it means

how much it means

every moment i got

every moment i got yeah

every moment i got

every moment i got

how much it means

yeah

every minute i got

every beat of my heart

how much it means

yeah yeah

yeah yeah

it's gone the moment i reach towards
