Lost in competition, lost in pursuit,
        A hill conquered, a flag waved,
        A brief moment of victory,
        Bringing clearly into focus,
        Only more hills to climb.

Lost in desire, lost in emotions,
        All there is, is searching,
        All else fades away,
        No self can be felt,
        No self can be found.

Lost outside of myself,
        When all depth is gone,
        When I seek inward,
        And can only find seeking outward,
        There is no happiness.
