(Soft hum) I can’t explain this emptiness…
With love all around, a heavy weight persists…

All I ever wanted, lies right here,
But every day it just disappears.
People tell me, "Count your gold,"
But my heart feels lost, and it’s grown cold.

Got friends, got family, got a safe place to land,
Yet every joy slips right through my hands.
Holdin' a life that should feel whole,
Still searching for a piece to fill the hole.

I reach for light (light...) but I find the dark,
A silent ache (ache...) deep in my heart.

("Why does it feel so empty in my soul?")
I’ve got it all, still feelin' low…
("Why can’t I find that light inside?")
With love all around, yet I still wanna hide.

I’m haunted by peace that won’t stay for long,
A weight on my chest to remind me I’m wrong.
Tied to the things that should set me free,
Yet I’m lost in a world that won’t let me be.

I’ve got the answers, but none of them fit,
Walkin' in circles, this endless pit.
With diamonds and dreams, yet I’m empty still,
I can’t find the way, I can’t feel the thrill.

What’s the meaning of joy if it slips away?
How can I love, if I’m lost each day?
The shadows linger, (linger…) but I can’t find the light,
Caught in a daydream that fades every night.

They say hold on, but it’s hard to believe,
When my soul’s lost somewhere I can't retrieve.

("Why does it feel so empty in my soul?")
I’ve got it all, still feelin' low…
("Why can’t I find that light inside?")
With love all around, yet I still wanna hide.

(Mmm...) Love surrounds, but I still feel alone…
(Ohh...) I’m drifting with nowhere to go.

Maybe someday, I’ll find the key,
To free this heart that’s caged in me.
Got everything, yet I’m still tryin’ to find...
The missing piece trapped deep in my mind.
