You Are Lost - Bonnie "Prince" Billy

It was bound to happen

From when you first knew you

And pulled apart with will

From those around you

If you love wind

Or morning or night

If you are kind

And get lit up by light

Well you are bound to be

Put down at any cost

And if you listen to me

You are lost

You are lost as I am singing

You are lost inside a sound

If you can get away from these words ringing

Maybe you can be found

If your heart tells you, «you love», and you listen

And you know a purpose holds you in your place

I only ask you close your eyes

That you won’t see me

And then that light will then

Shine fully on your face
