[Verse 1: AJ]
Empty spaces fill me up with holes
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me, I can't find no rest
Where I’m going is anybody’s guess
[Chorus: Nick with Howie]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is
Incomplete!
[Verse 2: AJ with Howie & All]
Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby, it’s written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake
[Chorus: Nick with Howie, All]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is
Incomplete!
[Bridge: AJ & All]
I don’t mean to drag it on
But I can’t seem to let you go
I don’t want to make you
Face this world alone
I wanna let you go
Alone, oh-oh-oh-oh!
[Chorus: Nick with Howie, AJ & All]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is...
(Going to be is)
[Outro: Nick]
Incomplete, incomplete
Empty spaces fill me up with holes
Distant faces with no place left to go
Without you within me, I can't find no rest
Where I’m going is anybody’s guess
[Chorus: Nick with Howie]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is
Incomplete!
[Verse 2: AJ with Howie & All]
Voices tell me I should carry on
But I am swimming in an ocean all alone
Baby, my baby, it’s written on your face
You still wonder if we made a big mistake
[Chorus: Nick with Howie, All]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is
Incomplete!
[Bridge: AJ & All]
I don’t mean to drag it on
But I can’t seem to let you go
I don’t want to make you
Face this world alone
I wanna let you go
Alone, oh-oh-oh-oh!
[Chorus: Nick with Howie, AJ & All]
I tried to go on like I never knew you
I’m awake but my world is half asleep
I pray for this heart to be unbroken
But without you all I’m going to be is...
(Going to be is)
