Lost
By: Casi Leigh Davis

It's not so much a question
of knowing what to do.
It's constantly asking myself
and constantly asking you.

What if tomorrow?
What if today?
When facing these questions
I don't know what to say.

If tomorrow comes
where will I be?
I cannot answer that
my future is a mystery.

What if I die?
What if I live?
No matter what happens
I have nothing to give.

I keep asking questions
No answer is in sight
Maybe I will give up
it isn't worth the fight.

I try not to think about giving up
but giving up means no more pain
I don't have anything to lose
I have everything to gain.

I have given up all of my hope
I am tired of asking you
I don't know why I ask you this
I know what I am going to do.

My time has come to end this ordeal
I wonder where I will go?
It says in the bible thou shall not kill
where does that leave my soul?

I have killed myself and I linger
I am not going anywhere
I guess this is modeled after my life
I am lost in the middle of nowhere.
