Void In My Heart
There's a void in my heart
I can't seem to fill.
Been a parent,had three children
And a big house on the hill.
Hundred dollar in my pocket
And it didn't buy a thing.
Now there's a void in my heart
And a hole in my dreams.
Well I poured miles of concrete
And strung wire for telephones,
Dug ditches whenI was a yound boy
When I first left my parents' home.
Sang my songs for millions of people,
Sang good and bad news,
Now there's a void in my heart
And a fire at my fuse.
Well I did everything just like they said
So I could find happiness.
Went to school and got a college degree
And at my job I did my best.
As I sit here alone tonight
I see a billion just like me
With a void in their hearts and running from eternity.
There's a void in my heart I can't seem to fill.
I do charity work when I believe in the cause
But in my soul it bothers me still.
Hey, Lord, well you made me like I am.
Can You heal this restlessness?
Will there be a void in my heart
When they carry me out to rest?

Void
I've seen so many faces
These hands have lied before
I've kissed so many lips it's blocked my mind
I've whispered bullshit, nothings
I've cried alone in night
I thought I'd found the one a million times
But doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
I let a stranger love me
I gave away my pride
I bit my lips, so I could block my mind
I've called your name to others
Just like a spinal chord
Severed and broken but the spark still tries
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the noise?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
They don't know you like I do
They don't see the good inside you
They don't lie with you in bed and join you when you're dreaming
They don't see your softer side
Who'll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone bring the noise?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?

Into The Void
Im losing power and I dont know why
Not really sure if Ill live or die
I wanna leave but I cant get away
Its a strange sensation
Out of control being by myself
I feel this gravitation
Caught like a magnet and Im being pulled
Into the void
I wanna get away, get away
Into the void
Im being pulled, Im being pulled down
Into the void
This place is spinning, spinning around
Into the void
Fell like Im being pulled into a black hole
This crazy feelings screwing with my head
Im overloading and my gauges are red
State of confusions got ahold on me
I feel a hesitation
Im being (? )drug, pulled out of the track(? )
Dont like the situation
Caught like a magnet and Im being pulled
Into the void
I wanna get away, get away
Into the void
My head is spinning, spinning around round
Into the void
This force is getting, gettin stronger
Into the void
Fell like Im being pulled into a black hole
Into the void
Im being pulled, being pulled down down down
[solo]
Into the void
Dont like this feeling, Im being pulled down
Into the void
I wanna get away, get away
Into the void
Feel like its spinning, spinning around
Into the void
Im being pulled, being pulled down down down
Into the void
Get away, get away
Into the void
Fell like Im being pulled into a black hole

The Void
By Samuel Sweetnam
Cold is the Void
That is what we are not
That is where we are to go
That is what we are to become
Dark is the void
That steals the night
That fills the heart
Of the greedy man
Black is the void
That hides the lost
That feeds the beast
That hunts the good
The void is cold
The void is dark
The void is black
The void is torture
If the void is all
We are to become
Then what is left
Is there no hope?
For one small child
Born one dark night
Among the void
Consuming the night
He brought the life
He brought the hope
Some two thousand years ago
He brought us light
So remember this
My dear friend
Of the babe born
On Christmas morn
He brought the Warm
He brought the light
He brought the Love
Among the night.

When I looked at the streets
You know, it was talking to me
When I looked at the streets
You know, it was talking to me

See you into your revolution
What's a revolution?
Can you please wake up now?

Baby Can I Hold U Tonyt?
baby it's colder tonight
and i am out of the house again
looking for someone to fill the void
inside my heart
this constant void looking for
someone to fill my longing
for love
baby i see you walking in the park
wearing the same face that i have
looking for someone to fill
the voids in our hearts
baby can i hold you tonight?
baby i am walking in the park
on that warm and darker side
baby my arms are open
you can have them all tonight
baby, i have my love
all too ready
to jump with you tonight
to hug you and kiss you
baby same time same warm and
darker side of the park
baby same body with me, tonight?
promise me baby, you don't tell
our stories to her or anybody,
and so baby my heart is beating
again beside your heart in that
warm and darker side of the park, tonight?

Becoming Love
Looking for love.
Love from another.
One to fill my void.
A void that could not be filled.
The void was within myself.
Love has no criteria,
It has no agenda,
It has no motive,
Except to love.
It is void of expectation.
If I were to become it,
Then I could find it anytime.
For it would always be within me.
Our will, seeks to be loved.
God's will, asks us to become love.
Love, attracts love,
Like motive, attracts motive.
Love is for another,
Motive is for self.
You find what you are willing to share,
Or what you are willing to become.
At the end of our time,
The only thing that will remain,
Is the legacy of the love.
That we left behind.
What was given to us,
Goes back to heaven,
To be given back.
To those that remain.

Child
child
your smile
a lane of fun
a paradise
so sweet
a song
a hollow pond
filled with
sparkling
spring water
carps swimming
in circle
what i lost
i find in you
to beget you
to fill the void
i cuddle, kiss, touch
to satisfy an inner world
untended field
that now enjoys
drizzle and new grasses
your soft curly hair
rubs against my heart
in the quiet,
i feel like filling up
any void
in your heart
now and forever

Shattered Dreams
My dreams are shattered
My life is empty
They took my dreams away
Ripped them out of my heart
Now I'm left with this void
This void that will never be filled again
They want me to be lonely
They want me to be depressed
They want me to be hated
They want me to die
No one cares that I'm alone
No one cares if I'm miserable
No one cares if I die
They had to take her away from me
They told me that its for the best
They took her away from me
Now my heart is shattered
No one can glue my heart together again
Because once its broken it can't be mend
They shattered my dreams
When they told me she doesn't exist

I Challenge The Void
When a heart's alone and is pounding hard
The matters of the heart with surge
Deformed and incomplete
Deterring to take form
And misery unspoken will pale a nightingale's song
And ears intrusively will cock towards infinity
Challenging the void as if to prove its worth for once
That it has strength, the strength to bear the sound
That never left the tip of his tongue
And that which never reached his parted lips
But the loudness of the turmoil in his heart
His heart, only his heart, he couldn't teach
And this chaotic silence the void must carry
To the one who glistens in tears
All screaming madness and utter despair
Shall wear off and dissipate
When his heartbeats have reached her ears

There Is A Choice
there is this void
that i think, remains to be
a void forever
no matter how you
fill it up it remains
a void, a chasm and
you feel like falling
forever on a bottom
that seeminly is not
there at all
there is also this joy
that remains to be a joy forever
inside our hearts and it rises
and rises forever
you feel like flying up forever
and there is no roof
of cloud or sky
there you are
at the middle
of these two contrasts
look up and look down
you choose

Casablanca
At the temple of black gods I failed again
For you - a chilvarous end for a man
Clandestine enthralling haze
A docile sacrifice for my grace
And you will hear me
Sirens calls of temptation
Teasing you
No limit will be
No taboo of imagination
Ill fill your void
Resurrect from the ban they put on you
Fall again - you will - what they foreknew
Only gods illuminate
And just a slave to be is my fate
And you will hear me
Sirens calls of temptation
Teasing you
No limit will be
No taboo of imagination
Ill fill your void
I will always savour you
As I will always be your fool
And you will hear me
Sirens calls of temptation
Teasing you
No limit will be
No taboo of imagination
Ill fill your void
And you will hear me
...
Always fill the void in me

Luke Filewalker
what you have you found about me
and my files?
lots of virus
nothing about aids
some worms, and
clots, and
scars,
makes everything slow down
as they used to be
can't find love in the files?
what did you find somehow?
are these matters transparent?
can they kill?
there is a hole
a void in everything, do not think that it is just contained
in the doughnut
there is a void in
lOve too, nothing much in lUst, i tell you, i have been there,
for one thing, you think too much about what people say
God's judgment
i admire Rey for telling me
he is just human, and will be human in the form of happiness.

His Love Letter
I thought I’d dropp a line to you
To let you know what I’m going through.
I know that we are no longer together
And you may think that it’s better.
But I am in so much pain
Since you left, I’ve never been the same.
There is a void in my heart
Ever since we’ve been apart.
This void is like the oceans swells
And I feel like I’m going thru hell.
I recall every feature of your face
And no one can ever take your place.
I feel the gentleness of your kiss
It is something I will always miss
The scent of your body capturing me
Holding my heart, and never letting it free.
Your eyes taking me deep into your soul
A pleasure that I will forever hold.
Recalling those moments of love making pleasure
A memory that I will forever treasure.
These are the things that I am going thru
And it’s all because of you.

Your Orange Hair In The Void Of The World
Your orange hair in the void of the world
In the void of these heavy panes of silence
Shade where my bare hands seek your image.
The shape of your heart is chimerical
And your love resembles my lost desire.
O sighs of amber, dreams, glances.
But you were not always here. My memory
Is still obscured by seeing your coming
And going. Time consumes words, like love.

Darkness
I am the night
I am the void
That consumes every deceased soul
I lie in every man's heart
Where they hide their darkest secrets
I am the fear of every young child
Though I run from light
I follow behind its every footstep
To consume everything it has left behind
To seal it in my prison eternally
Devoid of all light
Devoid of all hope
I am what welcome's the fallen
I am what hide's every beast
Waiting to tear the flesh off your bones
I am the void
I am the nothing
I am Darkness

Inside The Void
inside the void
you like to die in the void
you like to die
wait, do not die yet
there is this sense of
things unfinished
you have not really done
everything and some things are messy
and need to be put in their proper order
you are called upon by time to
correct some mistakes
of others, or even of nature itself
it is not time to die yet
this is but a beginning
an emptiness that lectures
and guides and soon shall find
some ways to fill
some things
some people
soon they will come before your
eyes and soon you will understand
things and people may be late
like a fireman like a policeman
but they make a good finishing
a happy ending.
