"You're Lost" lyrics

"You're Lost"

When nothing keeps you together
When nothing is holding you in
You're a balloon and all the world's a pin
No scaffold or frame or structure
No bones beneath your skin
Where do you end and where does she begin

You're lost
In a sea of doubt
You pay the fee
But you can't get out

A pill on your tongue dissolving
An egg outside its shell
A puzzle that no one's solving
At the bottom of a well
What could you bring
That would unring that bell?

You're lost
And the water's high
They said to swim
And you wondered why
Even try
