[Verse 1] I prayed heaven today Would bring its hammer down on me And pound you out of my head I cant think with you in it [Verse 2] I dragged all that I owned Down a dirt road to find you My shoes worn out and used They cant take me much farther [Chorus] Something always takes the place of Missing pieces you can take and Put together even though You know theres something missing [Verse 3] The sun burned a hole in my roof I cant seem to fix it I hope the rain doesnt come And wash me down the gutter [Chorus] Something always takes the place of Missing pieces you can take and Put together even though You know theres something missing [Bridge] She rides in a car like a queen on a card And the guns of her mind aim a line straight at mine To a heart that was broke, tried to feel but got choked In the smoke of a desert, a beach with no treasure A night thats so blue, feed the aching in you In the background birds take a flight from the earth Where the bonfire burns and the night current turns On a lifeboat floating down a river of sleep I cant see her hollow eyes Im walking along with my boots full of rocks I cant believe these tears were mine Ill give them to you to keep away in a box [Chorus] Something always takes the place of Missing pieces you can take and Put together even though You know theres something missing [Outro] Something always missing, always Someone missing something Something always missing, always Someone missing something Something always missing, always Someone missing something
