Flotsam & Jetsam - Missing lyrics

If it were all just gone

If it just wasn't there

Would I disappear?

Would I even care?

Avoid in the arrangement

A blind spot in my mind

A space in what's important

A black hole of some kind

It walks right beside me

Invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

Stumble through another day

Not knowing what is wrong

Not stolen, not lost or broken

Been missing for so long

Can't quite find it in me

Fading pulse, can I survive?

My heart fails me again

Flat lined but still alive

It walks right beside me

Invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

Dragging it behind me

Can't hold on any more

Slips through my fingers

It scatters on the floor

It hovers right above me

As I move from door to door

When I hang my head in shame

It lies there on the floor

Searching for what I may never know

It's missing, I can feel it

Can't just let it go

When I reach out I can feel it

It walks right beside me

Invisible to most

Not an apparition, not the holy ghost

It hovers right above me

As I move from door to door

When I hang my head in shame

It lies there on the floor

Talks from inside me

Silent to most

Not the voice of God

Not the only ghost

Dragging it behind me

Can't hold on any more

Slips through my fingers

And scatters on the floor

It lies there on the floor

Missing
