Lost and Losing

I still don't know where I've 
been, so

How can I know where I'm 
going?

I'm spiraling out of control

And showing no signs of slowing.

I still don't know who I am

And this tunnel isn't glowing

I'm just hopelessly spinning

Gotten so accustomed to losing

And just expect to be hurt

With no notion of winning

Just like the oceans of spilling

Over the edge of the earth
