doo dooo dooo dooo dooo
doo dooo dooo doo dooo do do do do
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
whoa whoa whoa
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 backround
birds take a flight from the earth where the bonfire burns and the night current turns
a lifeboat floating down
a river of sleep
I cant see her hollow eyes
Im walking along with my boots full of rocks
I can't beleive 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

doo dooo dooo dooo dooo
 doo dooo dooo doo  dooo do do do do

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

 whoa whoa whoa

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 backround
birds take a flight from the earth where the bonfire burns and the night current turns
a lifeboat floating down
a river of sleep

I cant see her hollow eyes

Im walking along with my boots full of rocks
I can't beleive 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
