They told me not to worry

They told me that it'd be alright

But can I really give up without a fight?


The world's not like it was years ago

Wars and high-rise buildings have replaced the farms and peace

We used to have on Planet Earth


If you'd told me that three years ago

When I was naive, quiet, innocent, barely speaking-

I would've believed you

I would have trusted in your faith


But I'm not sure anymore

After events from the past and present

Scarring me, seeping through me

Just like poison


I'm lost.

Who are you? Where am I?

I'm lost, washed away in the latest waves.


My eyes used to speak, but now they're dead.

I used to smile, but now emotion's gone.

I used to laugh, but genuine's faded.

My body's there, but my soul's lost.


I'm forgotten, my spirit's gone,

Lost in the clouds,

Waiting for the day it'll be found.
