About the song

Listen
I love this song. It’s geared more toward tweeners and it has a small tribute to one of my favorite ‘80s singers, Pat Benatar. I am extremely close to my cousin, she’s kinda like the little sister I never had. She calls me a lot for advice or just to be a sounding board. I love her, unconditionally.  I’ve witnessed to her more than I’m sure she would like and she’s been so polite in humoring me. Well, I started to put myself in her shoes and this song just kinda poured out. Again, another 3 o’clock in the morning wake up from the Lord. I take it as if the character, ‘me’, is questioning what Christians keep trying to tell me, try to witness to me, and I’m searching for the answer. I’m “lost”, confused, hurt, alone and in need of something to “fix” me. Well, I’m kinda putting God, Jesus to the test, and telling Him to show Himself to me. Help me believe. Kinda goes along with the ideas of “Meet Me Here”. We can only do so much on our own. We really must rely and put all of our strength, trust, etc, in the Lord. He’s the only one who can help fix us, change us, love us like no one else can.

Lyrics

Verse
Bottled emotions of my,
my torn heart
Jesus, I’m much too weak--
I need a brand new start
You said in Your Word that you--
have a plan
I need to find You, Lord
Cuz I don’t understand

Pre-Chorus
I don’t wanna hurt no more
Can’t wanna feel this way
But what else can I do?
What else can I say?

Chorus
I am so lost
Help me believe
I gotta let go
I need to be free
I am so lost
Why can’t I see?

What you have done--
you have done for me
I am so lost
Gotta be
Need to be free

Verse
I know the world says they,
just don’t know
Running in circles--
don’t know where to go
It seems we push too hard
good turns to hate
Come release me, Lord--
before it gets too late

Pre-Chorus 
I don’t wanna hurt no more 
Can’t wanna feel this way 
But what else can I do? 
What else can I say? 

Chorus 
I am so lost 
Help me believe 
I gotta let go 
I need to be free 
I am so lost 
Why can’t I see? 

What you have done--
you have done for me 
I am so lost 
Gotta be 
Need to be free

Bridge
I am so lost
Don’t wanna cry
I am so lost
Can’t wanna try
Why am I lost?
Jesus You came
Now set me free

Chorus
I am so lost
Why can’t I see?
What you have done--
you have done for me
I am so lost
Gotta be free
I am so lost
Why can’t I see?
What you have done--
you have done for me
I am so lost Gotta be
​Need to be free
