There's plenty to breathe but I'm fighting for air
I guess you filled up a hole I didn't know was there
I got a mouth to speak but the words won't come out
There's nothing to say if you're not around
You'd lay with your leg wrapped on my hip bone
You'd hum in your sleep, you said life was a song
Now what do I do when the singing's all gone?
In the absence of you there's a crater
That's greater than the universe
And any stargazer could see
It humbles the grandest of canyons
I'm just a man left standing here
Trying to be
In the absence of you
There's a pain in my chest here where you used to lay
And it misses your hair and the rhythm your heart used to play
And my hand stays open just hoping you'll warm it again someday
There's an ache in my soul like a hunger that won't go away
You'd shine in the darkness like something so holy
The sun was its farthest, your sunlight would hold me
Now what do I do when the light is all gone?
In the absence of you there's a crater
That's greater than the universe
And any stargazer could see
It humbles the grandest of canyons
I'm just a man left standing here
Trying to be
In the absence of you
There's a lonely
Only the broken and downtrodden lowly can see
It crumbles the mountains to rubble
And I'm just a man left standing here
Trying to breathe
In the absence of you
In the absence of you
The absence of you
In the absence of you there's a crater
That's greater than the universe
And any stargazer could see
It humbles the grandest of canyons
I'm just a man left standing here
Trying to be
