Lyrics Lost - David Place

I've been sitting on my own
Writing this true song
Fighting with the vices that have known me all along
Sweating out my shoes
Playing only blues again
I've broken all my bones
And busted all my teeth
I thought she was my love
But she didn't quite agree
She didn't quite agree

I've been lost, I've been found
I've been breathing when I should have drowned
I've been washed away when it didn't rain

I've been hiding behind my sins
Of cocaine and gin
Drinking down my pity like a bloodthirsty thing
Wishing I was something
Still I play along to the soundtrack as my song
Everything else is just gone, gone, gone
Gone like the wind blew that day

I've been lost, I've been sold
I've been burned to the blackest coal
I've been roaming the streets of here for too long
I've been young, now I'm old
I've been hungry and I've been cold
I've had the key, just not the door

I've been wishing I was dead
You know those voices in my head
Won't stop unless I break them with something
Cold or hot, it don't matter as long as it's a lot
I've been sitting on my own
Singing this sad song
Fighting with the vices that have known me all along
Sweating out my shoes
Playing only blues again

I've been lost, I've been found
I've been breathing when I should have drowned
I've been washed away when it didn't rain
I've been running 'til my feet wear out
I've been momentarily on the ground
Just to be, just to be

I've been lost, I've been sold
I've been burned to the blackest coal
I've been roaming the streets of here for too long
I've been young, now I'm old
I've been hungry and I've been cold
I've had the key, just not the door
