(Can you stop the fire? Please.. please.. please - you can’t stop the fire)
(Can you stand to fight her - you won’t say the words)

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 die to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't someone missing me?

(Can you stop the fire? Please.. please.. please - you can’t stop the fire)
(Can you stand to fight her - you won’t say the words)

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 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 died to know you love me
I'm all alone
Isn't something missing?
Isn't someone missing me?
