Lost Without You
allSTARS* Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall
Of illusion, never glimpse the truth
Then it's far too late when they pass away
We were talking about the love we all could share
When we find it to try our best to hold it there
With our love, with our love
We could save the world if they only knew
No one else can make you change
And to see you're really only very small
And life flows on within you and without you
We were talking about the love that's gone so cold
And the people who gain the world and lose their soul
They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them?
When you've seen beyond yourself
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there
And the time will come when you see we're all one
And life flows on within you and without you

We were talking about the space between us all
We were discussing the disconnect we feel between each other
And the people who hide themselves behind a wall
Some people put up a façade to conceal their true selves
Of illusion, never glimpse the truth
They're missing out on the truth because they're focused on illusion

Try to realize it's all within yourself
You have the power to effect change within yourself
No one else can make you change
You alone hold the power to change yourself
And to see you're really only very small
We must recognize our own smallness in the grand scheme of things
And life flows on within you and without you
We are part of a larger, interconnected world and our actions have impact
We were talking about the love that's gone so cold
We were discussing the absence of love in our lives
And the people who gain the world and lose their soul
Some people prioritize material gains at the expense of their own well-being
They don't know, they can't see, are you one of them?
Some people can't see that their choices are leading to a loss of self
When you've seen beyond yourself
Once you realize that there is a larger world out there, beyond just yourself
Then you may find peace of mind is waiting there
You can find inner peace by looking beyond your own ego and self-interest
And the time will come when you see we're all one
We will understand that we are all connected and part of the larger universe
And life flows on within you and without you
We are part of the larger flow of life, interconnected with everything else
