Analysis of Lost

Tessie Ray 1986 (United States)



Strange feeling lonely inside
No where to hide
A lost soul tortured with time
So lost dont know what to do
Where do you turn when everyone is against you
Sufficated by people
Still lonely heart no one to hold
What to say to make my time better
Tell how to show the love that is in my heart
Who to give it to when everyone uses you
So lost I don't know what to do
