Lost in Life
Uncharted Shores Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And gets to thinking,
About Prom Queen and partying,
Can't get her head on straight,
But has to try before it's too late,
But I don't think she has a chance,
But you're too proud to show me,
The way you really see the world,
I'm here to help,
And I'm sure it feels like hell,
Come take my hand we'll fly away to promised lands,
What are you running from?
Why can't you just see that this through?
When you're lost in life I will try,
Oh, I'll try, yeah, I'll try,
To find you.
Please believe,
That we aren't just here,
Sitting watch you do your thing,
You want to scream, but,
Those chains they hold you down,
And I won't wait to get you off the ground,
Free to look forward to what is at hand,
If there's something to ask,
It's too short for a regret,
People make mistakes,
And I'm here to lead the way,
To see you spread your wings.
What are you running from?
Why can't you just see this through?
When you're lost in life I will try,
Oh, I'll try, yeah, I'll try,
To find you.
What are you running from?
Why can't you just see this through?
When you're lost in life I will try,
Oh, I'll try, yeah, I'll try,
To find you.
What are you running from?
Why can't you just see this through?
When you're lost in life I will try,
Oh, I'll try, yeah, I'll try,
To find you.

She's seventeen,
At a tender age of seventeen,
And gets to thinking,
She is pondering about things
About Prom Queen and partying,
It is about becoming the prom queen and attending parties
Can't get her head on straight,
She is flustered and needs clarity
But has to try before it's too late,
But she has to put in the effort before it becomes too late
But I don't think she has a chance,
However, I believe that she may not be successful in this endeavor
I know you, you know me,
We are acquainted with each other
But you're too proud to show me,
But you are too proud to reveal yourself truly to me
The way you really see the world,
Your real perception of the world
I'm here to help,
I am here to provide assistance
And I'm sure it feels like hell,
I am aware that it may be challenging for you

Take my hand, and together we will go to a better place.

Free to look forward to what is at hand,
Empowered to focus on the immediate future

Mistakes occur and are part of life
