Lost Child

It's so dark, I don't have any faith
Looking for something that I can't see
My strength is fading away
Just to be, to be me

And every day I've been waiting for some kind of light
To tell me how I should go on
Because a missile can take my life away
At any moment, any day

So the life that I have
Does not belong to me
My fate is not a game
That I can just postpone

And the future I had
Has turned to dust
I am counting
Days and nights

Lost child, we are one and the same
Our hearts are confused, we are lost in the void
We hope for someone to call our name
And guide us away from all that's destroyed

There's no escape, so I know that I will have to stay
With every thought and empty promise
The sun will rise, but I will not see the day
I will be lost deep in the darkness

I tried so hard to pick myself up
To find the strength within
But the shadows, they are just too deep
For me even to begin

And every day I watch myself die
Sink beneath my dying sun

So the life that I have
Does not belong to me
My fate is not a game
That I can just postpone

And the future I had
Has turned to dust
I am counting
Days and nights

Lost child, we are one and the same
Our hearts are confused, we are lost in the void
We hope for someone to call our name
And guide us away from all that's destroyed

Manifest the way it ends
With your ashes scattered over me

Where I go, the stars don't shine
Endless hopelessness I can't deny
Pushed to the edge, I'm left all alone
I'm running out of time, this is my home

Lost child, we are one and the same
Our hearts are confused, we are lost in the void
We hope for someone to call our name
And guide us away from all that's destroyed

And every day I watch myself die
Sink beneath my dying sun
And every day I watch myself die
Sink beneath my dying sun
