Lyrics:
I know a man with nothing in his hands, nothing but a rolling stone. 
He told me about when his house burnt down, he lost everything he owned.
He lay asleep for six whole weeks, they were gonna his mother to choose.
When he woke up with nothing he said I'll tell you something, 
When you've got nothing, you've got nothing to lose. 

Now I've got a whole in my pocket, a hole in my shirt, a whole lot of trouble, he said. 
But now the money is gone, life carries on and I miss it like a hole in the head. 

I know a woman with kids around her ankles and a baby on her lap. 
She said one day her husband when to get a paper and the mother fucker never came back.
Mortgage to pay and four kids to raise, keeping the wolf from the door.  
She said the wolf's just a puppy and the door's double locked so why you gotta worry me for. 

Now he left a in hole in my heart a hole in a promise a hole on the side of my bed. 
Oh now that he's gone well life carries and I miss him like a hole in the head.

Well sometimes you can't change and you can't choose.
And sometimes it seems you gain less than you lose. 

Now we've got holes in our hearts, yeah we've got holes in our lives. 
Well we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on. 

Well we've got holes in our hearts, yeah we've got holes in our lives. 
Well we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on. 

Said we've got holes in our hearts, yeah we've got holes in our lives. 
Well we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on. 

Said we've got holes in our hearts, we've got holes in our lives. 
we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on. 

Said we've got holes in our hearts, we've got holes in our lives. 
we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on. 

Said we've got holes in our hearts, yeah we've got holes in our lives. 
Well we've got holes, we've got holes but we carry on.

Arguably the most underrated artist around. Simply brilliant.

[bernardking]

One of Passenger's best songs. Not only about real life problems but also extremely talented music. Brilliant!

[abhijitchowdhury]

In the over crowded, hot & over polluted greyish old city of Calcutta, with lots of holes in my heart, this song feels like a shower of rain. Lot of love Passenger.

[JimmyCorden-kg]

For anyone who has walked beside a loved one who suffered, this song lifts U, bless U❤

[dipro]

I hope he gets the Nobel prize for both literature and peace some day.

[AlbaniiiAcm]

It's not just this song, but all of them from the Passenger, make you think about life, and how you deal with it, how to make yourself to push just another day, and another one, and another one...

[Blackhat_coders]

May Passenger live forever, he gives hope to the hopeless .

[jasonskeite]

This song brought me to tears...As a Christian, I rate this better than most modern Christian music. The realist song in the modern era!

[jamilesimplicio]

"Well sometimes you can't change and you can't choose" Very honest and realistic
Thank you so much for this song
This is what music is, meaninful, touching, raw and beautiful.

[thatcanadiangamer]

I have loved this song for years. Two weeks ago I lost my home in a fire, and this song resonates with me more than ever, I have found it to be very healing. Thank you Passenger. ❤

[SaagarBhatta]

Passenger's songs are always special. They touch. They really do.

[KillingBiting]

This has been my favourite song for ten years now. When I saw Passenger live in Montréal in 2015, my first concert, he played it as his very last encore song. I still think about the feeling of that when I need it. This song has been there for me for a lot and I needed to put this here for when I’m watching this again another decade from now

[justanotherbard]

I went to see Passenger last week in Hamburg and it was one of the very best concerts in my life

[maryobrien]

Oh you clever sensitive beautiful man! I am a 70 year old professional singer who used to be a busker...well actually I like busking the best .I am now learning Scare away the dark. Bless you and all who sail with you. When Im on stage and go into" Let her go"...the audience erupts...thank you for your terrific presence in this planet. Stay safe and be happy bro

[hanagilanji]

, ,Wolf is just a puppy and door is double locked. So why you gotta worry me for?"

Best ❤

[edlyle]

Passenger's perspective through his music.  He is on fire.  Let us all hope he does not burn up or fade away.  World needs him.

[eyanndegwa]

An artist but most importantly a storyteller... How underrated the caution emphasized in his songs often is. I only pray his stories would reach more people and touch them for the brilliance is epic.

[colosal]

Dam, this song makes me cry every single time.

[brianwangwe]

Passenger, Ed Sheeran, James of these...best there food to the soul.

[andoniefernandez]

We got holes in our lives but we carry on ... Passenger well are one of the best
