When I think of what was left behind by the missing
Makes me realize through the hurt the gift we were given
That's not here when we need it the most
Now all that is left is a ghost
Of a light that they shine in the dark of the night when I'm missing
When I think of all the people who live in their shadows
Joy turns to sadness and no hope of changing tomorrow
Well its all part of living I guess
Where we all carry on through the mess
Yeah I hope there's a place we can go where its better than sorrow
It can hurt you sometimes
When the darkness arrives and they're gone
Yeah they're gone
Sure it haunts me sometimes
But the dark turns to light and we all move on
Yeah we all move on
When I think of all the people we haven't forgotten
Bittersweet smiles of how hard its to bare life without them
It'd be nice to see them once again
Have some more time to spend
To catch up on things
It can hurt you sometimes
When the darkness arrives and they're gone
Yeah they're gone
It can haunt me sometimes
But the dark turns to light and we all move on
Yeah we all move on
From the missing
The missing
The missing
