About This Track

'Missing' by Evanescence is a hard rock track from the live album 'Anywhere But Home (Live)', released in 2004. The lyrics find a speaker begging for forgiveness while insisting they will not be home again, then pressing a haunted question about absence and importance: “Isn't something missing”. The tone is pleading and self-doubting, moving through lines about being forgotten and asking whether anyone will notice, or care. In the end, the repetition of insignificance sharpens the emotional point, making the song feel like a confrontation with neglect.

"Missing" is a single by Evanescence, from the album Anywhere But Home (Live), released 2004. The track is 4:16 long. It's filed under Hard Rock. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 4 articles about Evanescence.

Lyrics

Missing

Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
Maybe someday you'll look up
And, barely conscious, you'll say to no one
Isn't something missing?

You won't cry for my absence, I know
You forgot me long ago
Am I that unimportant?
Am I so insignificant?
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

Please, please forgive me
But I won't be home again
I know what you do to yourself
I breathe deep and cry out
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?

Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

And if I bleed, I'll bleed
Knowing you don't care
And if I sleep just to dream of you
And wake without you there
Isn't something missing?
Isn't something...

Even though I'm the sacrifice
You won't try for me, not now
Though I'd die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
