Lost and Found


Stuck in some kind of way 
Not sure what happens next 
Put on a poker face
Only negative effects 
From the thoughts filling my mind
And the life that would be kind 
I'm starting to feel lost only to be found

I can sit and think
But what good is that? It's begun 
Shouldn't cry before it's a ton
Get my feet wet on the run
I'm trying to stay sane
I'll stay true to myself 
I'm starting to feel lost only to be found

What makes us feel like we are done? 
The strong one has put down the gun
How will we know if we have won?

I've thought of every reason why
And hid my feelings in a lie
But I can't let this show
Got to let this go, oh 
I'm starting to feel lost only to be found

I'm tied up in feelings 
I haven't slept in days 
No nothing has changed 
Well maybe I'm naive in a way
I'll put down my phone 
There's nothing to say
Gotta figure it out
Because I can't wander about

What makes us feel like we are done?
The strong one has put down the gun
How will we know if we have won?

I've thought of every reason why
And hid my feelings in a lie
But I can't let this show, oh
I'm starting to feel lost only to be found

Too many paths to turn to
Tell me the way to get through
Waiting for things to make some sense
How did this erupt out of the blue?
Sometimes I have to say I don't know, oh no
What makes us feel like we are done?
The strong one has put down the gun 
How will we know if we have won?

I've thought of every reason why
And hid my feelings in a lie
But I can't let this show, oh 
I'm starting to feel lost only to be found
