Lost Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's back to the basics without you now
I'm trying not to fall under
You told me I should take a look around
Lost it all and it's no wonder how it came to be
I'm stepping out the door of you and me
I'm crossing out the eyes and what they've seen
I'm better off, I'm better off, I'm better

[Chorus]
It's time for me to breathe
I'm gasping for the air you stole from me
I'm crossing out the eyes and what they've seen
I'm better off, I'm better off, I'm better lost

[Drop]
Lost, I'm better lost
Lost, I'm better lost

[Verse 2]
Been down on defeat
Rose from beneath
To find my escape
I'll run from the lies you tried to hide
I'll vanish without a trace
[Chorus]
It's time for me to breathe
I'm gasping for the air you stole from me
I'm crossing out the eyes and what they've seen
I'm better off, I'm better off, I'm better lost

[Bridge]
Now I'm without you, without you now
Now I'm without you, without you now
I'm better lost
I'll never need you to see through
Yeah, I'm better lost

[Drop]

[Outro]
Now I'm without you, without you now
Now I'm without you, without you now
I'm better lost
Now I'm without you, without you now
I'm better lost
Now I'm without you, without you now
Now I'm without you, without you now
I'm better lost
I'll never need you
I'm better lost

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
