Lost

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Or falling back into the same old habits?
You're back at the place that you said you hated
Just hoping that we'll run into each other
Yeah, making bad choices when you shoulda gone home
Well, I can't be the only one who tries so hard to shake it off
Making bad choices when you feel a bit lonely
Lost when I think of us
When I thought that I just forgot
Then I mess it up
Well, I can't be the only one who's
Lost when I think of us
When I thought that I just forgot
That I'm missing us
Well, I can't be the only one who's lost
Wake up from a dream, are you dreaming of me?
Although you go to bed with someone new now, yeah
All the memories were made, could you throw them away
Or just put them somewhere safe where no one finds out?
Yeah, making bad choices when you shoulda gone home
Well, I can't be the only one who tries so hard to shake it off
Making bad choices when you feel a bit lonely
Well, I can't be the only one, the only one who feels a little
Lost when I think of us
When I thought that I just forgot
Then I mess it up
Well, I can't be the only one who's
Lost when I think of us (when I think of us)
When I thought that I just forgot (I forgot)
That I'm missing us
Well, I can't be the only one who's
Lost in my mixed emotions
Oceans of feeling hopelessly lost, so lost
Lost in my mixed emotions
Oceans of feeling hopelessly lost, so lost, yeah
I know that you wan it, babe
The fact that you're missing it
The good and the bad
The over dramatical love that we had
Know that you never tell
You're keeping it to yourself
But I can't be the only one
The only one who feels a little
Lost when I think of us
When I thought that I just forgot (when I thought I just forgot)
Then I mess it up
Well, I can't be the only one who's
Lost when I think of us
When I thought that I just forgot
That I'm missing us
Well, I can't be the only one who's
Lost in my mixed emotions
Oceans of feeling hopelessly lost, so lost
Lost in my mixed emotions
Oceans of feeling hopelessly lost
Well, I can't be the only one who's lost

Your name on the screen, are you thinking of me?
Wondering if you still have feelings for me when you see my name on your device
Or falling back into the same old habits?
Returning to old patterns and behaviors that weren't good for us
You're back at the place that you said you hated
Going back to a location that you claimed to dislike
Just hoping that we'll run into each other
Wishing that we'll accidentally bump into one another
Yeah, making bad choices when you shoulda gone home
Engaging in poor decision-making instead of heading back to where you live
Well, I can't be the only one who tries so hard to shake it off
I'm not the only person who's struggling to overcome such negative inclinations
Making bad choices when you feel a bit lonely
Making poor decisions when you're feeling somewhat deprived of human connection
Lost when I think of us
Feeling confused and uncertain when recalling our past
When I thought that I just forgot
When I believed that I had successfully erased those memories from my mind
Then I mess it up
Then I end up ruining things once again
Wake up from a dream, are you dreaming of me?
Waking up from a slumber wondering if you were just visiting me in your dreams
Although you go to bed with someone new now, yeah
Even though you're with another person now in bed, yes
All the memories were made, could you throw them away
Can you discard and forget all the experiences and recollections we shared
Or just put them somewhere safe where no one finds out?
Or hide them discreetly in a secure location where no one else can uncover them?
Lost in my mixed emotions
Overwhelmed and unsure due to my conflicting feelings
Oceans of feeling hopelessly lost, so lost
Experiencing a vast amount of hopelessness and confusion
I know that you want it, babe
I understand that you crave and desire it, dear
The fact that you're missing it
The reality that you're yearning for what we had
The good and the bad
The positive and the negative aspects of our relationship
The over dramatical love that we had
The excessively dramatic and intense love that existed between us
Know that you never tell
Realize that you never reveal your sincere emotions
You're keeping it to yourself
You're keeping it private and confidential
Lost in my mixed emotions
Struggling to comprehend conflicting and complex feelings
Well, I can't be the only one who's lost
I can't be the only person who feels directionless and bewildered
