Lost and Found
I lost a girl,
she was too skittish to accept my world
I found another girl,
who loved living in this jaded world
Lost the good girl,
found a bad one instead
Took one bullet in my heart,
took another one to my head
But miracle of miracles ...
I'm not dead, I'm alive
I survived
The bad girl tried to kill me more than once or twice,
then she said she was changing her life
Was gonna start living for Jesus Christ,
start doing that which is right
So I lost that girl,
she loved me enough to no longer accept my world
I never found another girl,
who shined in my heart like that beautiful, lost pearl
