Lost the Map
(c) J. Murdock McInnes Vasey

[intro]

[instrumental]

This is how I live
Every day trying to write
This is not what I believed
That it would be such a fight

Every day the same same thing
I stay stuck, caught in a trap
I cannot ever see the end
I believe I've lost the map

I go out and look for hope
I look for something to hang on
Some new words that I can use
A new take on the same song
I take them back and write them down
and I can see they don't belong

I never thought this would be it
That I would spend my days like this
Looking for words that don't exist
Writing songs best left undone

[instrumental]

Eagles flying way up high
I fail to catch their eye
They never look at what is mine
It is all just wasted time

They fly around in circles
Fly so high and then they go
I am always way down here
This is something that I know

What I do has little meaning
Just my rants and silent cries
The eagles never look at me
They belong up in the sky

[instrumental]

I go out and look for hope
I look for something to hang on
Some new words that I can use
A new take on the same song
I take them back and write them down
and I can see they don't belong

I never thought this would be it
That I would spend my days like this
Looking for words that don't exist
Writing songs best left undone

[instrumental]

This is how I live
Every day trying to write
This is not what I believed
That it would be such a fight

Every day the same same thing
I am stuck, caught in a trap
I cannot ever see the end
I believe I've lost the map

I believe I've lost the map

I believe I've lost the map
