Lost

Lost

A Poem by schnickythep

It's not wrong that I'm trying
To find my way on my own
Anything's better than the old machine
I used to call my home
Still it's getting harder
To find a meaning in it all
Hindsight may be perfect
But in the present I still fall

Am I the only one who's lost
In a world so far from the truth?
And when all the lies are plain to see
How is it still enough for you?

Build a wall and paint it
So you think that I'm alright
Cause you don't need to see me
When I'm too tired to fight
You don't need to worry
I've always worked this way
And though confused I' still alive
Guess that's the price I pay

Am I the only one who's lost
In a world so far from the truth?
And when all the lies are plain to see
How is it still enough for you?

Scream for you to wake up
But you don't want to hear
I  only want to help you
But you refuse to have me near
Am I the only one who's lost
In a world so far from the truth?
And when all the lies are plain to see
How is it still enough for you?
