Lost


I am lost in this lonely world With my troubled past And I can't escape from these memories That will forever last The darkness surrounds me And the obscurity, oh how it confounds me And I cannot escape this reality That will forever last I don't know what to feel anymore Or what feelings are even for So why must I live through this suffering That burns me up inside That ruined all my life That brings tears to my eyes That always made me cry That always hurt my pride And realize that my life - it was a lie! This life is a burden My future is uncertain But I know that I must go on to fight another day So I must undo the wrong And continue to hold on strong So I can finally push the troubled past away I need the strength to fight this pain And see my life change 'Cause I don't want you To see me this way anymore Not anymore I was lost in this lonely world With my troubled past And I have escaped from these memories That will no more last
