The story of this song continues to follow the boyfriend/ex of "Her," as he struggles to cope with his decision to break away, despite his strong affection.

WHERE ARE YOU?
The void space is casting a shadow
Upon my pain. It doesn’t seem to let me go.
Will the pain ever stop for a moment?
You left me here with questions left unanswered.
What am I to do?
When everything seems so hard,
I want to fight, but all my hope is gone.
Is there anything still worth it? Answer me!
Will you help me guide my way back to you?
The emptiness begins to fill my soul. I must ask:
Where are you? Where did you go?
Everything that we worked so hard for means nothing in the end.
I cannot pretend that I could ever forget you.
You left me without saying goodbye ).
The very thought of it distorts my mind.
And the worst part of it all is I didn’t get to tell you…
That I need you!
I just want you near me!
Always beside me!
My wandering mind!
My aching hands!
Simply put, I am lost!
The night you walked away, I couldn’t believe it.
I dropped everything to be by your side.
It wasn’t enough. Was it ever enough?
If the path was so sure, why did you leave me this way?
But if I close my eyes,
Will you still be there when I wake up?
So just please don’t go.
I need you here with me.
I open my eyes to see the truth.
The space is empty.
Everything means nothing.
I lost everything when I found out that
You were gone. You lied to me.
This whole charade; it can’t go on.
Everything means nothing (I lost everything)
I lost everything when I found out that (When I lost you.)
You were gone. You lied to me. (I lost everything)
This whole charade; it can’t go on. (When I lost you.)
