I have this feeling
Deep in my soul
I feel this emptiness
It’s driving me crazy
But I’m searching hard
For the cure

There is something missing
Something has disappeared
I can’t figure out what it is
But deep down I know
It’s because of you
You’ve done this to me
And now my heart is empty

I sit at home
Listening to songs on the radio
But not even music can fill my soul
I need a break
Away from this nonsense
Away from the emptiness
That’s dragging me down

There is something missing
Something has disappeared
I can’t figure out what it is
But deep down I know
It’s because of you
You’ve done this to me
And now my heart is empty

Things are coming back together
Slowly but surely
I know the hole will disappear
Over time
I just got to be patient
And wait for my heart to make the final decision
I know I can make it
I just got to wait for you

There is something missing
Something has disappeared
I can’t figure out what it is
But deep down I know
It’s because of you
You’ve done this to me
And now my heart is empty

&quot;Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in the mirror which waits always before or behind.&quot;

Sometimes life doesn&#039;t go as planned but that&#039;s okay because then we would get bored with everything and who knows maybe something bad could bloom into something amazing.
