Lost in the Mist

Once so clear like cut crystal

I knew what I was doing

Where I was going,

My path to take.

I was on the right track.



Then things become less simple,

Caught in a a blurry storm of snowing

Life left me shattered so I started gluing

I myself to remake.

My path covered with a mist of depression black.



Confusion set in, o confusion so nimble

And my friends I started shooing

Lost in euphoric glowing

My careful plans confusion did break

There was no turning back.



The feeling of being lost and alone did kindle

Thinking that everyone behind me was booing,

I didn't know that I was lost and kept going,

Lost, much too lost in the ist for any's sake,

And a map home do I lack.



So forever more, I'm lost - lost in the mist

while it grows more solid round me and so I

simply say - I'm lost today forever more.
