I Got Lost to Grow

Living in suffering isn’t living

Born without direction into the unknown

Daily battle in the scorching desert

Pointless games just to keep on losing

And what do I do if I don’t even know who I am? [Verse 2]

I got lost in the jungle

The north held danger

The south had wild animals

In the east, rivers and potholes

And the west made no sense at all

And who do I ask for help when I’m all alone… [Pre-chorus]

Empty pages, with no writing on them

Pen without ink to even start

An unfinished story waiting for an ending

Who do I ask to finish it when I don’t want to anymore…

I was born to be real

I got lost so I could grow on my own

I let go to move forward

I stopped looking back so I wouldn’t suffer again

Smiling to hide it all

And I’d do it again just to keep moving on…

Can I keep going or is it over?

My story is hard even if I don’t show it

How can I go on when I have nowhere to go?

Turn into something I don’t want to be

I can’t — come stop me…

No one to show me any interest

No one who wants to hold me up

No one to hug tightly

No one, just no one, ever shows up…

I was born to be real

I got lost so I could grow on my own

I let go to move forward

I stopped looking back so I wouldn’t suffer again

Smiling to hide it all

And I’d do it again just to keep moving on… [Outro / Final]

Whoever wants to show up

Welcome to my world

And whoever doesn’t — thank you for not being my friend

You and I are different…
