Island Lost
 2001, Phillip Smith

I'm on an island, lost in the sea
She's on the mainland, happy as can be
Alone with my thoughts, I torment myself
I'm lost forever, no chance for help

No ships pass by, no planes overhead
They've all stopped looking, left me for dead
I try to survive, but grief tears my soul
Nobody can help me, fill the empty hole

Island lost
Stranded alone
I am lost
Stranded alone

I light signal fires, hoping she'll see
But why do I try? She'll never love me
The island is small, with nowhere to hide
And keeps geting smaller with each coming tide

Why do I bother, why try to escape?
The sea around me is boiling with hate
It laps at my feet, taunting my mind
It knows I'm a memory, just left behind

Island lost
Stranded alone
I am lost
Stranded alone

I haven't much left, it's all gone away
The sea has taken what I hoped would stay
I call out once more, in vain, but I try
All I hear is my pathetical "why?"

Island lost
Stranded alone
I am lost
Stranded alone
