Lost Lyrics

Tragic, confusing
When you slammed the door
I've never lost someone like you before
I let you go softly
Not even a sound
Hoping that someday you'd come back around
'Cause I miss your sandpaper face against mine
The way you get impatient waiting in line
It doesn't matter if we don't agree
I like you even when you don't like me

And I'm lost
When you're away
Lost, fading to grey

Captive to words that I wish I could say
I never imagined I'd crumble this way
'Cause somehow I thought this was where I belonged
Don't leave me wondering if I was wrong

'Cause I'm lost
When you're away
Lost, fading to grey
(Lost in the night in the absence of light)

Lost, when you're away
Lost, fading to grey
Lost, when you're away
(Lost in the shadow that you left behind)
Lost, fading to grey
(Lost in the night in the absence of light)
Fading to grey
Fading to grey

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

i think this song is beautiful! i can't belive i am the first one to comment. i think that this song is about someone breaking up with someone who they were trulymadlydeeply in love with. and they were hoping that they would come back to them soon, but it never happened, but now they feel out of place and lost.

I like you even if you don't like me.

i've been like that a lot of times. i love this song.
