Losing My Mind Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge]
I won't open these eyes
Like there's chaos in my mind
Like dreaming of death
Or that feeling that you get
When the disk is corrupt
When we're running low on luck
Yeah, and everyone's
Drugged up
Tripping at midnight
While howling at the moonlight
Dancing with knives like
The fire, it will burn on
High at my day job
I tried to set some bombs off
While smoking some napalm
It makes me want to
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Everyone has crossed the line
Now and then, you will be finе
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
I live on the edgе, I must be losing my mind
Get out of my head, it's now the scene of a crime
This world is on fire and I am ice
Can't balance things lately, I think we're gonna die
Must be losing my mind
[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge]
Stop now
What is this bullshit?
I said we're not alone
And the government knows it
There's idiots abound
And they're all fμcκ¡ng racist
I'll put us back at ease
'Cause we need more complacence
We're all gonna die
[Pre-Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
Everyone has crossed the line
Now and then, you will be fine
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
I live on the edge, I must be losing my mind
Get out of my head, it's now the scene of a crime
This world is on fire and I am ice
Can't balance things lately, I think we're gonna die
I live on the edge, I must be losing my mind
I'm staying in bed to watch the cities ignite
The devil ain't retired, he's just thinking out loud
Everyone is crazy and it's freaking me out
I must be losing my mind
[Bridge: Tom DeLonge]
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
I must be losing my mind
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
Help us, we're losing our minds
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
But if we wanna survive
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
We'll dance right through the end times
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
I must be losing my mind
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
Help us, we're losing our minds
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
But if we wanna survive
(I must be losing, I must be losing)
We'll dance right through the end times
[Chorus: Tom DeLonge]
I live on the edge, I must be losing my mind
Get out of my head, it's now the scene of a crime
This world is on fire and I am ice
Can't balance things lately, I think we're gonna die
I live on the edge of fμcκ¡ng losing my mind
The voice in my head is now a fatal house fire
The devil made us beg and then he took away the high
They say that we're crazy, now it's sounding about right
I must be losing my mind
Losing My Mind Lyrics Explained
The lyrics of "Losing My Mind" by Angels & Airwaves convey a sense of chaos, frustration, and existential unease. Tom DeLonge explores themes of personal struggle, societal issues, and a looming sense of impending doom. The song reflects on the challenges of modern life, touching upon personal mental struggles, the state of the world, and the unsettling feeling that things are falling apart.
[Verse 1]
In the first verse, Tom DeLonge describes a state of mental chaos, comparing it to the disarray of a corrupted computer disk. The imagery of being "drugged up" and "tripping at midnight" suggests a sense of escapism or coping mechanisms in the face of challenges. The reference to "dancing with knives" and attempting to "set some bombs off" metaphorically portrays a desire for destruction or rebellion against the mundane aspects of life.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus introduces the idea that everyone has crossed a line at some point, yet there's an assurance that things will be fine. It touches on the universal experience of making mistakes and facing consequences but also implies resilience and the possibility of overcoming difficulties.
[Chorus]
The chorus highlights the protagonist's feeling of living on the edge, symbolizing a precarious mental and emotional state. The plea to "get out of my head" suggests a desire to escape intrusive thoughts. The imagery of the world being on fire while the protagonist feels like ice conveys a sense of disconnect and the struggle to find balance amid chaos. The repeated phrase "I must be losing my mind" emphasizes the pervasive feeling of mental unraveling.
[Verse 2]
The second verse confronts societal issues and government awareness of extraterrestrial existence. The frustration with racism and the call for complacence underline the complexity and challenges faced by society. The proclamation that "we're all gonna die" captures a fatalistic attitude, possibly in response to the overwhelming issues mentioned earlier.
[Bridge]
The bridge introduces a mix of despair and a call for survival. The repeated line "I must be losing my mind" reinforces the theme of mental unraveling. The plea for help and the acknowledgment that everyone is losing their minds reflect a shared struggle. The resolution to "dance right through the end times" suggests a defiant attitude and a determination to face challenges with resilience.
[Final Chorus]
The final chorus brings together the various themes, emphasizing the protagonist's struggle to maintain sanity. The imagery of a "fatal house fire" and the devil taking away the high allude to the destructive consequences of external forces. The acknowledgment that "they say that we're crazy" reflects societal judgment, and the affirmation that it's "sounding about right" suggests a resignation to the perceived madness. The overall tone is one of acceptance and defiance in the face of overwhelming challenges.
