Lyrics

An Emptiness Inside Of Me

She was only 21, had a lifetime ahead of her
She was a mother of two babies, which were sons.
Sometimes, people that you know, can so quickly become strangers.
In a blink of an eye, my life was changed forever.

Chorus:
And I sit alone, and listen to the silence
I wonder why it happened, what might have been, what never was.
There?s a hole in my heart, an emptiness inside of me.
Since you have gone, my world?s been torn a part.
I miss you.

(Break)

As I smile through the tears, and I try to go on with my life, the anger builds inside of me and I really want to fight.
Now, it?s been 5 years, but it seems like just yesterday.
The guilty got a pardon, but each and every night?.

Chorus:
I sit alone, and listen to the silence
I wonder why it happened, what might have been, what never was.
There?s a hole in my heart, an emptiness inside of me.
Since you have gone, my world?s been torn a part.

Chorus:
And I sit alone, and listen to the silence
I wonder why it happened, what might have been, what never was.
There?s a hole in my heart, an emptiness inside of me.
Since you have gone, my world?s been torn a part.
I miss you.
Oh, I miss you..
