“Lost and Running” is the third track on Powderfinger’s penultimate album Dream Days at the Hotel Existence.
The song was one of the first to be written by Powderfinger after a two-year hiatus by the group.
The song itself is about being dissatisfied with life, and overwhelming boredom and anxious...
[Verse 1]
Oh I was sick and tired of waiting lost
And you were mad at me for so much more
I was bored listening to the same old chords
You would complain that I was never around
And we shouldn't hope
No we shouldn't hope
If love is so easy then why am I stuck
If life is so smooth why can't I get enough
[Chorus 1]
Oh I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
No I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
[Verse 2]
Oh everyday moves like a hurricane
It's dragging me around no matter what I say
Night time in the city streets I'm out of luck
The cobblestones are dark and wet there's no one I trust
And it comes around
Yeah it comes around
Mr so easy say where have you gone
I'm looking for somewhere that I can lay down my arms
[Chorus 2]
Oh I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
No I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
No I'm still lost and running
Somewhere I lay down my arms
Oh I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
[Instrumental]
[Bridge]
I'm taking my time I'll let it float away
Spare me no lies and you've got nothing to say
The further we slip into this rabbit hole
The harder we look for a new place to go
[Chorus 3]
I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
No I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
No I'm still lost and running
Somewhere I lay down my arms
Oh I'm still lost and running
I can't get enough
[Outro]
Well the harder we look for a new place to go
Yeah the harder we look for a new place to go
Yeah can I lay down my arms?
Where can I lay down my arms?
Where can I lay down my arms?
Yeah can I lay down my arms?
(Fades out)
