Oh now
There's a hollow in my heart where you used to be
A quiet kind of ache that won't let me be
I tried to fill it up with faces and sounds
But nothing feels right nothing sticks around
I poured the bottle chased the smoke
Tried to laugh it off like it's some kind of joke
But every single night when the world goes dark
I'm alone with this pain that's tearing me apart
Oh there's an empty space
No one and nothing can replace
I keep running but I can't escape
The shape of you that won't fade away
I've tried to numb it tried to feel
But it's a wound that just won't heal
No matter what I do or say
You're the missing piece I can't replace
Oh now
I've got a drawer full of letters all your old things
Photos that haunt me and the songs we'd sing
I've been searching for solace in strangers' eyes
But no one sees through the perfect disguise
The highs don't lift the lows just sting
Every joy feels like a borrowed thing
I still hear your voice in the quiet of the night
A ghost of a love that won't turn out the light
Oh there's an empty space
No one and nothing can replace
I keep running but I can't escape
The shape of you that won't fade away
I've tried to numb it tried to feel
But it's a wound that just won't heal
No matter what I do or say
You're the missing piece I can't replace
I've screamed at the sky I've cursed the stars
But the silence answers with all its scars
No matter the comfort no matter the thrill
The hole you left just won't be filled
It's a battle every night every breath I take
Living with the love that turned to heartache
Oh there's an empty space
No one and nothing can replace
I keep running but I can't escape
The shape of you that won't fade away
I've tried to numb it tried to feel
But it's a wound that just won't heal
No matter what I do or say
You're the missing piece I can't replace
I'm just a lost soul in an empty room
Haunted by the thought of losing you too soon
I'll carry this pain and I'll bear the weight
Living in the shadow of this empty space
