Sarah Mclachlan - Lost lyrics

By the shadows of the night I go

I move away from the crowded room

That sea of shallow faces masked in warm regret

They don’t know how to feel,

They don’t know what is lost

Lost in the darkness of a land

Where all the hope that’s offered is

Memories of being taken by the hand

And we are led into the sun

But I don’t have a hold on what is real

Though we can only try

What is there to give or to believe

I want it all to go away I want to be alone

Sympathy’s wasted on my hollow shell

I feel there’s nothing left to fight for

No reason for a cause

And I can’t hear your voice

And I can’t feel you near

Lost in the darkness of a land

Where all the hope that’s offered is

Memories of being taken by the hand

And we are led into the sun

But I don’t have a hold on what is real

Though we can only try

What is there to give or to believe

I wanted a change

Knowing all I could do was try

I was looking for someone.
