Lost and Forgotten

The darkness shatters deep within my soul It’s like finding “the one” is this huge massive hole Evil thoughts re-flood my burned out brains Sickness withers in my ears of stormy trains Lashing out now that he’s gone again He’s lost in the system --- the law always wins I’m not trying to wait for another ten months I want to evacuate all of our rotten tree trunks I want to wash my hands of all things great and small So backed up, I’ve finally become the wall I’m fed up of guys and all of their talk Now I want to stop instead of choosing this walk Time and time again this story’s been told Of discombobulated men and all of their old Same old story, different verse Of everyday bullshit I get the pleasure of to rehearse What would happen if I just up and disappeared? I’ll tell you what would happen, another joke would reappear It’s hard enough just to stay alive It’s even harder with as many times as I’ve tried How many more will play with my mind? How many more “winners” will I come to find? Why can’t I find the one who I’ll be forever lost in his eyes? When will I find my love in enormous size? Do I have to leave my comfort zone? Or do I have to constantly be alone? I’ve been searching for someone to join with my life And bypass our differences and ongoing strife I can’t get away no matter how fast and far I run Because I can’t run away from God’s blistering sun Please, God, grant me the courage to move on Please tell me the reasons of why I’m always wrong
