Lyrics

?So Much Of What I Wanted?
words & music (c) & (P) by Guy-Michael Grande / Fifth Fret Music (ASCAP)

Got a pocket full of misery / Got a pocket full of change
Got a drawer filled with memories / Time herself will rearrange

I?ve got hours blurring days and nights / Too many miles behind this wheel
Got two hands to keep me steady / Now that I know just how it feels
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Yet I face this dark divide
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Still I?m unsatisfied
I?ve got two sisters and two brothers / Got a loving family
I?ve got my Mom and my Grandmother / Daddy watching over me

I?ve got good work to keep me going / So much music more to make
Got a life that?s finally growing / From a string of great mistakes
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Yet I face this dark divide
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Still I?m unsatisfied
Well, I have more than I could ask for / Some would say better than most
I don?t mean to be ungrateful / Unwilling to give up this ghost
Why can?t I take these gifts I?m given / And be their gracious host?

I can?t add one more addiction / Have to break them one by one
Need to summon some conviction / Get past the damage that I?ve done
Got no cure for curiosity / Just pure instincts that I trust
The allure of sheer velocity / My enduring wanderlust
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Yet I face this dark divide
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Still I?m unsatisfied
Long past falling, I am fallen / Crawling on my hands and knees
Time is ticking, still I stall in / Confrontation with this tease
Someone out there hear me calling / Won?t you hear me, please?
Now, I?ve got kettles all a-brewin? / Got five irons fueling this fire
Sometimes I don?t know what I?m doin? / In straits so tentative and dire
I?ve got plans and dreams and grander schemes / And stamina to spare
But in-between, behind the scenes / Wonder am I getting anywhere?

I?ve got so much of what I wanted /Yet I face this dark divide
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Still I?m unsatisfied
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Yet I face this dark divide
I?ve got so much of what I wanted / Still I?m unsatisfied
