When you first started out
Began this episode
You had nothing but doubt
What did the future hold?
---
You hardly knew the world
Perhaps you never will
Jaded at twenty four
You thought you'd had your fill
---
Along the road you might
Have missed your share of turns
Stood in the fire's light
Received your share of burns
---
I wish your eyes would open
And you might find
We swam a common ocean
One stroke behind
---
Lost
The illusion of control
The delusion of your soul
Life will take its toll
---
Lost
Messing with your mind
Happens every time
Holding on tonight
---
You are much older now
Time makes a person wise
And yet in many ways
You wear the same disguise
---
A certain golden rule
You fail to ascertain
Your little fantasies
Can never dull the pain
---
They never had your love
They only held you back
You take no hostages
When you attack
---
The world's your enemy
And so you scream and shout
You got the last word in
That's all you care about
---
Lost
The illusion of control
The delusion of your soul
Life will take its toll
---
Lost
Messing with your mind
Happens every time
Holding on tonight
