I'm empty, and nothing made by human hands can fill me.
I may sound strange, or mad, or insane. as a matter of fact I'm all three.
I know I'm different, not like the others. I know I'm not normal.
Otherwise, how could I feel so hollow?

There is a spot in the center of my chest where I can feel it the most.
Look inside- can you feel it too?
Everyone has something they think will fill it.
But guess what. . . it never does.

So we go along searching all along for the thing we need most,
A thing that can't be found. because we're looking in all the wrong places.
We look in love and in hate in our jobs and our friends,
We look in the now and the how and the when- but that's all wrong.

There's a three letter word, that's all you need.
It will help you in ways you never dreamed of.
Most know, most see, and most turn away.

They turn away from God.
Yeah, I mean this. Really I do. People confuse me. 'Nuff said.
