Lost

Sometimes I think my mind will explode

I'm being led down the wrong darn road

I haven't the means to find my own way

No choice do I have but to be lost today



Nothing here do I recognize

Tears are streaming from my eyes

Where and how did I go wrong?

I've been lost for way too long



In the distance I think I might

See someone standing to the right

I stare hard to see some sign

That it's truly one of my kind



I run and I yell

Once or twice I may have fell

Over roots I am leaping

Tears of joy now I am weeping



Closer and closer I get

This will be the first person I have met

For way to long I have been alone

Thank goodness this person I was shown



Coming to a hault at its side

I feel harsh pounding in my mind

How could I have been so misled

By a product of nature that was shed



Sometimes I think my mind will explode

I'm being led down the wrong darn road

I haven't the means to find my own way

No choice do I have but to be lost today
