Lost
The stars are bright on this night
I can feel a heavenly presence in the light
I know I have to do things right
Even if I don't make it home tonight
The feeling I been getting is lost
My heart and mind seem to be criss-crossed
But on with my life I must tread
Even if I feel so helpless and dead
Dead is how I have felt for a long while
But I keep it hid with my smile
I can feel the pain on the normal days
I was once told it was just a phase
I never felt so lost in my life
A life so filled with chaos and strife
I wonder if I’m on the right track
And if not, can I find a way back
I hate feeling empty all day long
Because it feels so very wrong
I have been watching as the world slips by
I can’t feel alive no matter how I try
Lost is all I seem to be
Even the blind can see more then me
In this dark maze I am bound
Locked in the dark, waiting to be found
