I am Lost


I am lost
Inside a wilderness
Oh these days have been so dry in this desert where I lie
And this is it

I’ve let go
Of all the things I’ve known
And this is not my choice I’ve only lost my voice
And where to go

Can you see me
Hiding here?
Can you lead me
Once again?

Like a child I have come
To your table only looking for some crumbs
No more knowledge, wealth, or power, no more strength to hear our
Beating of the drums

Where has
All the truth gone?!
“Meaningless just meaningless, everything is futile”
Is our­ song

Can you see me
Hiding here?
Can you lead me
Once again?

Easy
It used to be so easy
I stuck my flag in confidence when what I really needed
Was the Truth

Oh and now
I’m so confused
Cause every pathway builds a structure and in the end the truth
It will refuse

Freedom
Everyone wants liberty
But as we break the chains of meaning we find ourselves
In new captivity

Answers
I haven’t anymore
So I’m laying myself bare, stripped of every mask, and walking out the door…
