I am lost and I am backward.
I don't know which way to turn...
I only have what I've seen and heard,
and that always seems to burn . . .
but I'm not giving up,
'cause I don't know how to give in.
I haven't had enough;
I know I've got to live.
My time has seemed so wasted . . .
The moments never last.
All the beauty I have tasted
just stays hidden with my past.
But I know that I can heal.
I choose which way to go.
I will find my something real,
and my strength will somehow grow . . .
I am lost and I am backward.
I know I've done all this before.
I am seen and I am heard,
but I'm needing something more.
When days are marked and numbered,
it's hard to move along.
I pray for peaceful slumber;
till then, I'll just keep keepin' on.
These days have seemed so useless;
life seems to fade away . . .
but my heart is so relentless -
I just can't sit and wait.
I have to find my way,
see where it may lead.
if only for today,
I'll have something to believe...
