[Intro Sample: The Sheltering Sky]

Are you lost?

Yes

Because we don’t know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well

Yet everything happens only a certain number of times, and a very small number, really

How many more times will you remember a certain afternoon of your childhood, some afternoon that is so deeply a part of your being that you can’t even conceive of your life without it?

Perhaps four, five times more, perhaps not even that

How many more times will you watch the full moon rise?

Perhaps twenty

And yet it all seems limitless

Are you lost?

[Verse 1: Steve Von Till]

My eyes were jaded

So close to the centre I could not see

But now they are fixed

And glaring at the sacrifice to be made

[Sample: In the Year of the Pig]

I would remind you that scripture tells us, that blessed are the peacemakers

Yet it takes a lot of doing to make peace

It takes a good deal of hard work, building like a mighty cathedral stone by stone, block by block

And I sometimes wonder

[Verse 2: Steve Von Till]

Now that I'm aware

Of the cycles I pray that I can deal

Now that I have shown you

These cycles I pray that you can feel

[Verse 3: Scott Kelly & Steve Von Till, Steve Von Till, (Scott Kelly) & Dave Edwardson]

Lost

In and out of the stray

Taking the bait

(Feeling compelled to obey), betray

The isle of await

[Sample: Presumed Innocent]

Bewitched, destroyed, abandoned, like someone left for dead

Suicide, until a dream begins

In the dream, the destroyer is destroyed

Now with such simplicity, such clarity, everything falls into place

The destroyer is destroyed

So powerful, control

[Verse 4: Scott Kelly & Steve Von Till]

Running scared from their thought

Thinking I can summon some ancient truth before wrong

Seeking my nature, our nature with fear of being caught

[Chorus 1: Scott Kelly & Steve Von Till]

Or have we been like this all along

Or have we been like this all along

[Refrain: Scott Kelly & Steve Von Till]

The dawn of birth gives way to men

[Chorus 2: Steve Von Till]

Age brings dimness to sight as it must

Age brings dimness to sight as it must

[Bridge: Steve Von Till]

Death seals the eyelids on darkness once again

Augmentation of the dust

[Chorus 1: Scott Kelly & Steve Von Till]

Or have we been like this all along

Or have we been like this all along

[Outro: Dave Edwardson]

Lost
