Lost & Found
Hugh Masterson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hold my head up, hustling on the ground
Don't know why I came here
Don′t know what I'm fight for
Somebody is showing the door
Yes somebody let me go
Well I made a big mistake
Fell in love with a girl that broke my heart
So I cut out all the pockets from my favourite blue jeans
And I ain′t got no money and how
Well I ain′t got nobody anyhow
I'm somewhere in the middle of lost and found
You can head off or we′ll be late bound to die forever
You can head off somehow
But I'm somewhere in the middle of lost and found
I′m somewhere in the middle
Well from now on I'm living like I′m dyin'
And I tried and I tried and I ain't gonna try no more
A love like yours make a man insane
Shot put that lead shot through my brain
′Bout to put that lead shot through my brain
You can head off or we′ll be late bound to die forever
You can head off somehow
It's hard to love
It′s hard to love
It's hard to love in the middle of the lost and found
I′m somewhere in the middle of the lost and found
I'm somewhere in the middle of the lost and found
I′m somewhere in the middle
The song "Lost & Found" by Hugh Masterson is a powerful reflection on the turmoil of life and love. The opening lines of the song set the scene with vivid imagery of being beaten up and hustling on the ground, metaphorically representing the struggles of living in a harsh world. Masterson's raw vocals and honest lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability and desperation as he sings about trying to find a way out of his difficult situation. The chorus conveys a feeling of being lost between two extremes: lost and found, living and dying. The singer appears to be at a crossroads in their life, unsure about the future and struggling to come to terms with past mistakes.
The second verse of the song seems to be about a failed romantic relationship that has left the singer feeling betrayed and broken-hearted. The image of cutting the pockets out of his favorite blue jeans is symbolic of having lost everything of value in his life, including his emotional and financial stability. The lyrics suggest that he is caught in a downward spiral, without money or anyone to turn to, and feels like he is on the brink of giving up altogether. The repetition of the phrase "somewhere in the middle" throughout the song creates a sense of uncertainty and instability, suggesting that the singer is struggling to find his way out of his predicament.
Overall, "Lost & Found" is a powerful song that speaks to anyone who has ever felt lost, alone or let down by life. The song's haunting melody and evocative lyrics paint a vivid picture of a person on the verge of giving up, while also offering a glimmer of hope that things may get better in the end.

Got beat up just walking ′round town
I was attacked for no reason while I was just walking down the street
Hold my head up, hustling on the ground
I'm trying to keep my chin up and make a living despite being knocked down
Don't know why I came here
I'm unsure about why I traveled to this place
Don′t know what I'm fight for
I'm struggling to find meaning or purpose in my life
Somebody is showing the door
Someone is telling me to leave or move on
Yes somebody let me go
Someone has set me free or released me from something
Well I made a big mistake
I've messed up badly
And I've made it more than once
I've repeated this mistake multiple times
Fell in love with a girl that broke my heart
I fell for a girl who ended up hurting me emotionally
So I cut out all the pockets from my favourite blue jeans
I've removed all my pockets so that no one can take anything from me
And I ain′t got no money and how
I'm completely broke
Well I ain′t got nobody anyhow
I have no one to turn to or rely on
I'm somewhere in the middle of lost and found
I'm stuck in a state of confusion and searching for my place in the world
You can head off or we′ll be late bound to die forever
You can leave, but if we don't hurry, we might be stuck here forever
You can head off somehow
You have the option to leave in some way
Well from now on I'm living like I′m dyin'
I'm going to live my life like it's my last day on earth
And I tried and I tried and I ain't gonna try no more
I've put in a lot of effort, but I'm giving up now
A love like yours make a man insane
Being in love with you is driving me crazy
Shot put that lead shot through my brain
I'm considering killing myself with a gunshot to the head
′Bout to put that lead shot through my brain
I'm seriously considering ending my life
It′s hard to love
Loving someone can be difficult
It's hard to love in the middle of the lost and found
Trying to love someone when you're lost and searching for direction can be especially challenging
I′m somewhere in the middle of the lost and found
I'm still searching for my place in the world
I'm somewhere in the middle
I'm neither fully lost nor fully found
