I walked across the world and I gathered up my treasure
I spent my sweat, my blood, and tears on the pain and on the pleasure
I traveled near a million miles to find the one I sought
Still I can't explain the reason I feel lost
I remember when the words came fast; I spoke with such conviction
I had the answers for the questions asked, authority, and wisdom
I sang, I yelled, I screamed my songs like each word was a battle fought
Now I can't explain the reason I feel lost
God bless the questions humbly asked
God bless the man who feels uncertain
God bless the time that's spent in searching
God bless, God bless the lost
I can't remember what put out that flame or what caused the shift in me
But I sat among the questioners and found myself questioning
I distrust the man that says he knows, and I challenge my every thought
Still I can't explain the reason I feel lost
God bless the questions humbly asked
God bless the man who dares to ask them
God bless the time that's spent in searching
God bless, God bless the lost
Then my mind returns to former times; to all that I've collected
Such a wealth of history is sure to yield the answers for my questions
So, I reach inside my treasure chest to draw from what I've got
I just hope I don't find that everything's been lost
God bless the questions humbly asked
God bless the lost
