I woke up today
On the other side
Looking back through the glass
Trying to just decided

Can’t find any footprints
No traces to follow
Don’t know which way to turn
Or where I should be wanting to go

I’m so lost and left behind
Nobody left to catch me when I lose my mind
I don’t know where I’m going
Or what I have to do
So don’t tell me you know me
And what I’m going through

I have found myself in a confused and lonely state throughout my life, and this is part of a song I wrote based off of these feelings and emotions.

Faith is like learning to walk; you have to fall at first, but don&#039;t stay down. When in doubt, don&#039;t stop believing.
