Missing

There's something missing
From deep inside my soul
And though it's never been there
It's left a giant hole
Pain has usually filled it up
It never let me down
But now I think it's not enough
And I'm crying on the gound
I have always tried to find it
In so many different places
I started with others
So many different guys, so many different faces
But then I get discarded
A piece of trash on the floor
And I'm alone again
It hurts more than before
They tell me to look inside myself
That I'll only find it there
But they don't tell me what to do
When it's yourself you can't bear
So the pain comes creeping in again
A cat burglar in the dark
And I don't even know it's there
Until it's claimed it's mark
It's heavy on my soul again
It's sharp claws are digging in
I don't know how to get them out
I think I'm giving in
So just let me be, I'll be ok
I just need some courage now
To take this razor and dig it in
Covered in blood I'll take my final bow.
