Lost Boy

v1
Lost boy runnin' in a hurricane.
It burns like fire
and it smells like rain again.
He lies awake wonderin'
in the dead of night;
Can't they see
that somethin' just ain't right
Bridge
Do they see the tears
flowin' deep behind steel eyes,
or hear his silent cries;
his silent cries?
Chorus
Do they know what it's like
to hide the pain
of ice flowin' through your veins;
when do or die is all the same?
Do they know how it feels
to live your life
never knowing why
you still stand up and fight?
v2
Lost boy lookin
at his empty soul.
He prayed for heaven
but he still feels like hell.
Lost boy wonderin'
why his heart's so cold.
Is there any mercy
for the wounded soul?
Bridge
Did they see his heart
breaking when he realized
that he couldn't fly;
he couldn't fly.
chorus
Do they know what it's like
to hide the pain
of ice flowin through your veins;
when do or die is all the same?
Do they know what it's like
to play a cruel game;
still caught in a hurricane
with no one left to take the blame?
Still lost in a hurricane.

Zaac…I love this song! Even though I can’t hear the melody I can still hear it…if that makes any sense…it has an intrinsic melody to it I think…a deep keening cry from the soul…an appeal from the bowels of the belly, if you will…wonderful write!

Dear Zaac,
I see and feel the longing, the struggle, the wanting, the tears, the fight, the pain, the repeat pain if you will, and the echo of a cry from a boy, who's lost. Perhaps even lost some faith along the way due to trails and tribulations, and is a natural human reaction. Windows to his soul's view seems incomplete. By the same token, I see a lost boy's faith so strong that he hangs on. Though a hurricane has been built, there is an eye of calm, and that is the place he strives to be. He just wants peace. I loved it! There still is hope in this, and that is the message also. Thanks for the read Zaac.
