  • I was lost but now I am found
    A line was crossed, a vessel run aground
    The boy has gone, let's grieve and let him go
    He left at dawn, but it's a new day don't you know?

    In the company of wolves I sat in silence
    Observant and afraid
    He was there with the eyes like glowing embers
    The man you see was made, oh whoa whoa

    I was low but now I am high
    It helps to know serenity from ennui
    Oh oh, something's wrong, something's wrong,
    When it all remains the same
    So face the fire, come into your name

    In the company of wolves I sat in silence
    Observant and afraid
    He was there with the eyes like glowing embers
    The man you see was made, oh whoa ooh

    Even I can't recall how many days I had been out there for
    But when all those lights cease to shine,
    I was alive I think for the first time
    Infinity it falls, in feathery folds
    But she bites like loveless eyes,
    And with her belly full she called this rite of passage,
    It was the longest night of my life

    It was the longest night of my life

    Even I can't recall how many days I had been out there for
    But when all those lights cease to shine,
    I was alive I think for the first time
    Infinity it falls, in feathery folds
    But she bites like loveless eyes,
    And with her belly full she called this rite of passage,
    It was the longest night of my life

    It was the longest night of my life Writer/s: Benjamin Lee Kenney, Brandon Charles Boyd, Christopher E Kilmore, Jose Anthony Ii Pasillas, Michael Aaron Einziger

  • David from Colorado Springs, CoGreat song. I love using seclusion as a way to realize what I need to do in life, and this song speaks true of that.
