I feel so lost to this world
There's no joy left in me
I have spent my whole life
Desperately searching
For something that was not there
Searching for a dream
That does not exist

My time has now past
All hope is gone...lost
Happiness eludes me
Grief exudes from me
There is nothing left inside
I am just this empty shell
All these long years
Ive been so busy searching
That I simply forgot to live

And now that I am old
And my last days on earth are near
I know this thing I'm searching for
Has always been right here

It lives inside of me
But I've been too blind to see
Is this life's grand illusion
Or just my sad conclusion
