Lost as Lost Can Be

Lost as Lost Can Be

I don't want no calls or company,
I walk the halls and find the key,
I fall asleep and sleep till three,
I am as lost as lost can be.

She's gone for good, she's gone from me,
And in her place there is a breeze,
It sings her name and knocks my knees,
I am as lost as lost can be.

I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be.

Where here we lay, where here we slept,
No conscience strayed, no envy crept,
My un-contained sweet spirit leapt,
Bound not but to your boundlessness,
But now those dreams do scream and jest,
"Get off my gleam, you sycophant,
This truth was not yours to invent,
My thrown is not your armor,
And now in dreams, let shadows haunt
And keep them as your past repent,
Know she was not your angel sent,
And you were not for her honor meant,
And the steel forged and the battles fought
The iron ore and the robes you sought,
All that now has been before,
Now turns to dust and comes and comes to naught."

And so, unyielding calls to me,
In hallow tones the Broken Dream,
When you and I were one were we,
But now unto the soundless sea,
From shore and land to rock and tree,
From beast and man to everything,
I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be.

I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be,
I am as lost as lost can be.

(repeat chorus)
