The Void

Verse 1
You rub your eyes and say goodbye
To another night of lust-filled lies
And as you leave you wonder why
That empty feeling’s still inside

Verse 2
Once you get home you try again
As Mary Jane becomes your friend
Inhale her smoke and give a grin
She hides the way you feel within

Chorus 1
The void you feel is always there
In every case and everywhere
Can’t be explained or so they say
But I know there’s another way

Verse 3
Your wife cries out to you again
Your work has taken her place in
Your heart she thinks or so she feels
She leaves again, this time it’s real

Chorus 2
The void you feel is always there
In every case and everywhere
Can’t be explained or so they say
But I know there’s another way

Chorus 3
The way to fill the void inside
Your heart is to let Him reside
So deeply in you cannot hide
The God inside, your God inside
