Missing (Album Version)

I prayed heaven today Would bring its hammer down on me And pound you out of my head I can't think with you in it I dragged all that I owned Down a dirt road to find you My shoes worn out and used They can't take me much farther Something always takes the place Of missing pieces You can take and put together even though You know there's something missing The sun burned a hole in my roof I can't seem to fix it I hope the rain doesn't come And wash me down the gutter 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 leisure a night that's so blue Feed the aching in you and 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 can't see her hollow eyes I'm walkin along with my boots full of rocks I can't believe these tears were mine I'll give them to you to put away in a box Something always takes the place of Missing pieces you can take and put Together even though You know there's something missing Something always missing always Someone missing something
