Void
Hayes Darren Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've seen so many faces
These hands have lied before
I've kissed so many lips it's blocked my mind
I've whispered bullshit, nothings
I've cried alone in night
I thought I'd found the one a million times

But doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?

I let a stranger love me
I gave away my pride
I bit my lips, so I could block my mind
I've called your name to others
Just like a spinal chord
Severed and broken but the spark still tries

And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the noise?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?

They don't know you like I do
They don't see the good inside you
They don't lie with you in bed and join you when you're dreaming
They don't see your softer side
Who'll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?

Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone bring the noise?




Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Void" by Hayes Darren paint a picture of someone who has experienced love and loss multiple times. The singer has seen many faces, lied before, kissed many lips, and whispered sweet nothings. They have cried alone in the night and thought they had found "the one" countless times. However, despite all of these experiences, they still feel a void in their heart that remains unfilled. The lyrics are a sad reflection of the difficulty of moving on from someone you truly loved, and the emptiness that is left behind.


The chorus of the song repeats the same questions about whether anyone can fill the void, kill the joy, or take the place of the person in their heart. The singer has tried to find love elsewhere, even letting a stranger love them and giving away their pride, but they cannot forget the person they truly loved. They call out the name of the person to others, but the spark still tries, showing that their love still exists even though it is unrequited.


The bridge of the song is particularly poignant, as the singer speaks directly to the person they love. They highlight the unique aspects of their relationship, such as lying together in bed and dreaming, and ask who will be there to turn their light on and wash away the stain that love has left. This section highlights the depth of their feelings and the possibility that they may never be able to fully move on.


Overall, "Void" is a heartbreaking song that speaks to the universal pain of losing someone you truly love. The lyrics are well-crafted, painting a vivid image of the singer's struggles and their desperate search for someone to fill the emptiness in their heart.

But doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you in my heart?
And doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
I let a stranger love me

They don't see your softer side
Who'll be there to turn your light on?
Who will try to wash away the stain that love has left us?
Doesn't anyone fill the void?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone kill the place of you in my heart?
Doesn't anyone bring the noise?
Doesn't anyone kill the joy?
Doesn't anyone take the place of you?
