Lyrics

Every day I try to get
on with my life
Every day I try to find
another way to ease my mind
Every day I try to fill
the void that's there by my side
where you used to be
with me
Now emptiness takes hold of me

Every day I try
Every day I cry
But that won't bring you back
to life

And around each corner lies
a friend of yours or mine
And around each corner lies
the feeling that resides in me
that just won't leave
and I grow tired
of trying
