There's a hole in my heart that I cannot fill

And the pain that it causes I cannot still

The love and compassion that should have been there

Got lost on the way, along with the care

And I can't get it back as hard as I try

So it strangles your love until you say goodbye

My insecurity grows day by day

And my desperation pushes away

The people who only want to feel free

'Cause your kind of freedon just feels wrong to me

I need an anchor to make me secure

And protect my heart while I fight the war

Going on in my mind and soul against

The black demon inside who takes all my strength

So I need someone who can always be there

To sing to me softly and to stroke my hair

Reassure me and tell me that I'll be ok

Help me keep winning 'til it goes away

What I need, you can't give, and you're not to blame

But if I stay with you I will go insane

We both know the best thing to do was to part

Rest assured that you still have a place in my heart
