Analysis of Somewhere Lost
Alone in great despair I cry at nite
Future of uncertainty cringes me aching my heart
No one to love only guessing at most
I rely on my sadness to sink me through the night
Pain and hopelessness wakes me by sunrise
Without any shelter for my worries
I live in memory of once being happy
Will I survive to see sunlight im not convinced
Is there a place for happiness
Show me and I’ll go
