Missing
Sparky & Charm Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When I'm Walking Through The Alley
Turn Back Just To Be Safe
Just In Case You Call Out My Name
And I Ain't Comin Here Look For Nobody
In A Room Of Flashing Lights And Sound Yeah
Feels Like An Ocean And I'm Drowning
Now All I Got Is This Drink Here In My Cup
Every Sip Is To Forget You, But No Luck
Twenty More Rounds, They Might Distract Me While I'm Drunk
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be In My Vision
So All I Got's This Drink To Fill My Heart
Throw It, Throw It Back To Forget How We Fell Apart
Thirty More Nights Like This Might Numb Me For A Month
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be The One That I'm Missing
Missing You You
Missing You You
Missing You You
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be The One That I'm Missing
Missing You You
See You In The Shadows
From The Club Until I'm Back Home
Guess I Forgot What It Means To
Be Someone Who Doesn't Need You
And Nothing, Nothing, Nothing Really Stops The Pain
When Somebody's Tattooed On Your Brain
Tell Me Do You Ever Feel The Same?
Now All I Got Is This Drink Here In My Cup
Every Sip Is To Forget You, But No Luck
Twenty More Rounds, They Might Distract Me While I'm Drunk
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be In My Vision
So All I Got's This Drink To Fill My Heart
Throw It, Throw It Back To Forget How We Fell Apart
Thirty More Nights Like This Might Numb Me For A Month
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be The One That I'm Missing
Missing You You
Missing You You
Missing You You
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be The One That I'm Missing
Missing You You
Missing You You
Missing You You
But When The Drink Comes Out Of My System
You'll Still Be The One That I'm Missing
Missing You
The lyrics of Sparky & Charm's song "Missing" describe the struggle of trying to move on from a past love. The singer is haunted by memories of their ex-lover, even when they are out trying to distract themselves with drugs and alcohol. They describe the feeling of drowning, trying to swim away from the overwhelming thoughts of their former partner. The repetition of "missing you" in the chorus emphasizes the main theme of the song: no matter what distractions the singer tries, they cannot escape the pain of missing their ex.
The singer sees their ex everywhere, even in the shadows when they are out at night. They are unable to forget their former partner, who seems to be "tattooed on [their] brain". The only solace they have is in the numbness provided by alcohol and drugs, but this is only temporary; as soon as the effects wear off, their ex is still the one they are missing.
The use of sensory descriptions, such as "flashing lights and sound" and "this drink here in my cup", creates a vivid atmosphere of being in a club or bar. The contrast between the loud, chaotic environment and the singer's inner turmoil emphasizes their loneliness and sense of isolation. The lyrics also reflect the common experience of trying to cope with heartbreak through unhealthy means.
