Lost


I want to live on an island, but only if nobody is there.  
I want to shine like a diamond in the sun lights reflection,
But I am finding it hard to find anybody who cares.


Love is never solitary,
But that is all I can be.
Right now, until I am ready to go steady, I shall remain alone;
With no need for a lover to call my own.


A broken heart, a darkened soul;
A lover no more, devoid of hope.
Ten souls on board, no more, no less;
Ten souls sinking down into the abyss.


I'd love to help you, if only I could find the right time;
They say time heals all wounds, but we know they are lying.
Take me in to cure your boredom; the sun no longer shines.
What have we done to all the fallen hearts that are all still dying?


I have nothing left to hide, you took my heart;
You took my pride, you took everything!
When you walked out of my life.
Now all I see is death through these eyes.


The ones who are lost,
Still rot in your imagination.
I am up the creek without a paddle
And you are never here to help me,
When I am desperately in need of a little direction.
