I’m so terribly alone.
I may be “loved”.
But I’m most definitely alone.
And not to mention lost.
Oh,
I’m so ******* lost I don’t even know
if I’m swimming up towards the air
that will release my lungs
or down to the depths of the sea
That will surely swallow me.
I’m so lost.
And alone.

I feel as if I’m wandering
with nowhere to go
and all I have to show
is my silly passport
that isn’t even real
because the name I see isn’t even mine
and the font it’s in
seems invisible to everyone else’s eye.
I’m so alone.
I’m so lost.
I’m so done.
I’m so ready to pay your cost,
Your fee,
Your ******* bounty,
Anything better than this ****** county.

But I can’t run away.
I have nowhere to run.
So I’m stuck being lost
In the same circle as always.
Going round
And round
Until suddenly
everything is fuzzy
And I’m too dizzy.
And all at once
My mind short circuits.
And it all starts over again.
The end.
I’m lost but not in the good way
