The Hopelessness of Flameless Candles

Give me something I can feel
So that I know Love is real…

Living in my world of numbness
  and night,
Sometimes i wonder if I'll ever see 
  the light.

Wish as I may 
Wish as I might
I can't unwish
What has already been granted,
despite my fight.

And I can't care 
Cuz I'll care too much.
And I'm pretty certain you won't feel
The explanation in my touch.

Give me something i can feel.
