LOST AND FOUND

LOST AND FOUND

Woke up this morning

With a weight on my chest

Wishing I could just close my eyes

And actually forget.

Forget about things I did

Even if I was just a kid

And the thing I most wanted

Was to go back to sleep.

You asked me to explain

But how can I express myself in a way

That'll make you understand

Why my hands constantly shake?

You won't understand when I tell you

That I don't know how to be the girl

I know lives within me

Yet no matter how much I scream and shout

She's nowhere to be found.

I want to believe you and go after your lead

But this is my road and you don't hold the map

But I've lost it too

Strangley enough it seems like I finally found peace

In the lost but never found.
