Lost Without You
Adam Jensen Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I feel so alone, I feel kicked around.
You're in the room but you don't make a sound.
You made a mistake and I'm okay with that.
I take all the blame then I give it all back.

Can I be your fool again?

There is so much that we haven't had the chance to say or do.

I forgot to be myself while you were busy being you.
This love is not through
cuz I'm lost without you.

I'm driving tonight in this lonely town,
clearing my head cuz I'm feeling so down.
I'm in to the pain cuz it makes it real.
I bend and I break on the lies that you deal.

But I'll be your fool again.

There is so much that we haven't had the chance to say or do.
I forgot to be myself while you were busy being you.
This love is not through
cuz I'm lost without you.

What can I do?
I'm lost without you.
I've been so many places
and seen so many faces.
Losing my way
and it's making me crazy for you.

I feel so alone, I feel kicked around.
You're in the room but you don't make a sound.

There is so much that we haven't had the chance to say or do.
I forgot to be myself while you were busy being you.

This love is not through
cuz I'm lost without you.
