I'm Lost

I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost

Searching for life’s meaning

Want to subvert the daily grind

And realize what I’m dreaming

Looked at my so-called friends

All I see are mannequins

Artificial people who are not real

Plastic people who cannot feel

So absorbed with their pretense

Don’t notice truth’s absence

Busy impressing someone else

Don’t notice they’re not themselves

But like them..
I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost

Wondering where I’m going

Not knowing where life is flowing

Children’s programs day by day

No time to stop and play

Imagination’s set aside

Until creativity has died

People running here and there

Trying to grab a breath of air

No time to ponder or to feel

Too busy chasing deal on deal

Like them...
I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost

Life’s meaning still eludes

Want to understand before life concludes


The river's current pulls me down
Head over tail, around and round
Life confuses and confounds
I want to land on higher ground

I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost, I’m lost

Wondering where I’m going

Not knowing where life is flowing
