Missing Lyrics by Evanescence

Anywhere but Home

2004

[Intro]
Please, please, please. Can you stop the fire? (Please, please)
Can you stand to fight her? (Please, please)
You can't stop the fire (Please, please)
You won't say the words.

[Verse 1]
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
"Isn't something missing?"
You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

[Chorus]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

[Post-Chorus]
Can you stop the fire? (Please, please)
Can you stand to fight her? (Please, please)
You can't stop the fire (Please, please)
You won't say the words (Please, please)

[Verse 2]
Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
"Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?"

[Chorus]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

[Verse 3]
And if I bleed, I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
I'll wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something

[Chorus]
Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

[Post-Chorus]
Can you stop the fire? (Please, please)
Can you stand to fight her? (Please, please)
You can't stop the fire (Please, please)
You won't say the words (Please, please)
