Lyrics
Surrounded by strangers
Understandings I have lost
No amount of money
Can supplement the cost
Urning for what matters
Will it matter anyway
Lost into myself
Looking for the way
PRE-CHORUS
What did I leave behind me
I drift into the wind
Looking for tomorrow
Concerned to where I've been
CHORUS
I've been lost out in the desert
Or maybe out at sea
Searching for the answers
To what's become of me
So many friendships faded
Lost grip, out of my hand
Banished and forsaken
God, tell me where I stand
VERSE 2
The desert sand surrounds me
Deserted in my heart
Extended my confusions
Moving figures in the dark
I’ve been to the highest mountains
To the deepest valley floor
I've been chasing my own shadow
I won’t chase it anymore
PRE-CHORUS
I’m searching for a meaning
Thoughts echo in the night
Tormented by confusion
On the things I hold inside
CHORUS
I've been lost out in the desert
Or maybe out at sea
Searching for the answers
To what's become of me
So many friendships faded
Lost grip, out of my hand
Banished and forsaken
God, tell me where I stand
BRIDGE
Ocean waves, I feel them crashing
A single drop of rain
Defined as something different
Water all the same
My mind is turning circles
It’s spinning like a top
God’s grace, I ask for mercy
Please make this torment stop
GUITAR SOLO
(Build from melodic sustain into soaring twin-guitar harmonies.)
FINAL CHORUS
I've been lost out in the desert
Or maybe out at sea
Searching for the answers
To what's become of me
And now I hear You calling
From the darkness to the light
You were always there beside me
Wanting me to get it right
I've been lost out in the desert
Or maybe out at sea
Your grace was always ready
To come and rescue me
OUTRO
When every hope has vanished
When nothing else is clear
God was there beside me
Now everything is clear
