Lost and Found

these times call for desperate measurements
to try to make some sense
of what we have and what we're headed for
standing guard of the future and what's past
look out for the present last
after we've catalogued what's been
and wait around for more

empty pockets open windows
how we hoped to see with eyes
we paint ourselves inside
and it's no big surprise

that we are lost and found
it's real to me right now
even though it's gone

we retreat but we're liars all the same
we run in circles reacquainting
what we know with what we think we know
you've got your calendar laid out
by the clock and soon I'll be without you
but the heart of you, I can't let go

we are lost and found
it's real to me right now
even though it's gone

until the day that I lay my head down
all I can say is that these feet won't touch the ground

we are lost and found
it's real to me right now
even though it's gone

we are lost and found
it's real to me right now
even though it's gone

we are lost, we are lost
we are lost, and we are found
even though it's gone
