And the guns of her mind aim a line straight at mine
I can't think with you in it
Something always missing
I can't seem to fix it
Something always takes the place of missing pieces
Always someone missing something
You know there's something missing
Something always takes the place of missing pieces
You can take and put together even though
Oh doo doo doo doo
She rides in a car like a queen on a card
And the background birds take a flight from the earth
Down the dirt road to find you
You know there's something missing
Something always missing
You can take and put together even though
I can't believe these tears were mine
I can't see her hollow eyes
To a heart that was broke tried to feel but got choked
The sun burned a hole in my roof
On a lifeboat floating down a river of sleep
Always someone missing something
And my shoes, worn-out and used
Oh doo doo hmm
Something always takes the place of missing pieces
Always someone missing something
I prayed heaven today
You can take and put together even though
Wash me down the gutter
I dragged all that I owned
I give 'em to you to put away in a box
And pound you out of my head
They can't take me much farther, oh
Doo doo doo doo
You know there's something missing
Doo doo doo doo doo doo
A night that's so blue feed the aching in you
Something always missing
Something always missing
And I hope rain doesn't come
Would bring its hammer down on me
In the smoke of a desert a beach with no leisure
I'm walking along with my boots full of rocks
Where the bonfire burns and the night current turns
