Something has left my life,
And I don't know where it went to, ah, ha, ha.
Somebody caused me strife,
And it's not what I was seeking. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/c/cranberries/empty.html ]
Didn't you see me, didn't you hear me?
Didn't you see me standing there, ah, ha, ha?
Why did you turn out the lights?
Did you know that I was sleeping?
Say a prayer for me,
Help me to feel the strenght, I did.
My identity, has it been taken?
Is my heart breakin' on me?
All my plans fell thought my hands,
They fell thought my hands on me.
All my dreams it suddenly seems,
It suddenly seems,
Empty, i, i, i (X 7)
I think the song means, a very someone special,whom you gave all you best love have left you .. Took all the best from you... Left you clueless and tormented...
