“Lost Yet Seeking” represents the experience of searching for god in hopeless times and fighting dark thoughts.

Oh god, where are you?

When I am in need of you,

When my heart aches with sorrow,

when it almost seems like

my world is crumbling apart.

When it all seems so familiar

Yet Unfamiliar when it feels

like being shattered to pieces,

When the smallest words they say,

Pierce my heart. Oh god,

Where are you? I seek you.

Sometimes, I question myself,

“Why do I live?” and I seek

the answer, trying to hear,

the smallest voice trying,

to give me hope, I try, try

and try, just to fail - Lost

All the negative thoughts

feeling like ominous

Black clouds, inside my mind,

Eating me up, draining me,

Leaving me alone for eternity.

Oh god, where are you?
