Lost Soul

I search my empty mind ,ask myself what it takes
what it takes to stand up to the world
I wander the deserted streets ,searching my soul
though it is something that's lost for ever

I ask a thousand questions ,shout a steaming curse
nothing ever is answered ,those stars so mute
I look for a pure smile ,all around my gloomy space
yet can't find one ,there are doubts in those faces

I lie down on the bed, thinking it would give me sleep
it promises me a zillion dreams, of days to come
yet I lie there eyes wide open, exorcizing ghosts of past
how many times have I fell, slain by the trusted knights
