Evanescence – Missing Lyrics 15 years ago
You guys are right. The meaning of this song is fairly obvious. But it's alays appealed to me on another level. Someone I was very close to passed away about 4 years and when I heard this song the first time, it almost floored me because. I felt like I had pretty much moved on and basically forgotten about that person, and then I hear:
"Maybe someday you'll look up,
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one:
'Isn't something missing?' "
The person I'm talking about was in a coma before their death and it just made me imagine that maybe they felt this way. I know it's not the meaning the song was written for, but it works for me.
