I wake up, but it feels like I'm still in the dark
Wandering the house, aimless, missing my spark
It's not bacon or eggs I long to find
It's your presence, now absent, that weighs heavy on my mind (oh-yeah)

You, the essence that kept me alive (oh-oh)
With every thought, I struggle to survive (struggle to survive)
You were my anchor, my guiding light (my guiding light)
Now I'm adrift, in the void you ignite (in the void you ignite)

Every step I take, feels like I'm falling down
Every word I speak, gets lost in this lonely sound
But I won't let go, no, I won't let you fade away
In this empty space, your memory will always stay

You, the essence that kept me alive (oh-oh)
With every thought, I struggle to survive (struggle to survive)
You were my anchor, my guiding light (my guiding light)
Now I'm adrift, in the void you ignite (in the void you ignite)

I hear your voice in every crowd
Echoes of you, they're so loud
But I'll keep dancing through the pain
Till I find myself again

You, the essence that kept me alive (oh-oh)
With every thought, I struggle to survive (struggle to survive)
You were my anchor, my guiding light (my guiding light)
Now I'm adrift, in the void you ignite (in the void you ignite)

(You, the essence that kept me alive (oh-oh))
(With every thought, I struggle to survive (struggle to survive))
(You were my anchor, my guiding light (my guiding light))
(Now I'm adrift, in the void you ignite (in the void you ignite))

You, the essence that kept me alive (oh-oh)
With every thought, I struggle to survive (struggle to survive)
You were my anchor, my guiding light (my guiding light)
Now I'm adrift, in the void you ignite (in the void you ignite)

(You, the essence that kept me alive)

(You, the essence that kept me alive)
