You're lost.
You stagger, and trip,
You panic, and fear,
You're scared and empty.

You're lost.
Do you know how to cope?
Do you know what to do?
How are you going to get back?

You're lost.
Your body is hollow
Your mind is empty
Your heart is racing
Your lips are moving, but nothing comes out.

You're lost.

You're lost.

You're lost.
and you can't find your way back.
