After the short opener “Son et Lumière”, this is the first full-length song on De-Loused In The Comatorium, one of the most powerful and adventurous rock albums of its era.

Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
[Verse 1]
Last night I heard lepers

Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost

Cast in oblong arms length
The hooks have been picking their scabs
Where wolves hide in the company of men
It said "I'm lost, I'm lost"
[Chorus]
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
[Bridge]
Are you peaking in the red?

A broken arm of sewers set

Clipside of the pink-eyed fountain
What of this mongrel architect?
A broken arm of sewers set
Past, present, and future tense
Clipside of the pink-eyed fountain
[Chorus]
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
Now I'm lost
[Outro]
It's been said, long time ago
You'll be the first and last to know
Ah, you'll never know
Ah, you'll never know
You'll never know
You'll never know
