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
