An Unheard Cry
She was huddled in the dark when I got there
Her face a mask of tears and shame
I held her in my arms and we cried all night
We both tried to carry all the blame
And I wake up at night
Swear I hear your voice cry out
So I follow the sound, but you're not there
You are a phantom limb
I feel you in the empty spaces,
Where I feel nothing at all
You are a phantom limb
I know you're there because I hurt
I'll never hear your laugh
I'll never see your face
I'll never feel your skin on mine
And you'll never have a place
So I walk these halls
I swear I hear your footsteps running out
I follow the sound, but you're not there
You are a phantom limb
I feel you in the empty spaces,
Where I feel nothing at all
You are a phantom limb
I know you're there because I hurt
I want to hear your laugh
Her face a mask of tears and shame
I held her in my arms and we cried all night
We both tried to carry all the blame
And I wake up at night
Swear I hear your voice cry out
So I follow the sound, but you're not there
You are a phantom limb
I feel you in the empty spaces,
Where I feel nothing at all
You are a phantom limb
I know you're there because I hurt
I'll never hear your laugh
I'll never see your face
I'll never feel your skin on mine
And you'll never have a place
So I walk these halls
I swear I hear your footsteps running out
I follow the sound, but you're not there
You are a phantom limb
I feel you in the empty spaces,
Where I feel nothing at all
You are a phantom limb
I know you're there because I hurt
I want to hear your laugh
