You’re Losing Me
Taylor Swift Lyrics

You say, "I don't understand," and I say, "I know you don't"
I know there's a gap between us, and you are struggling to comprehend what's going on.

We thought a cure would come through in time, now, I fear it won't
I thought we could get past our problems, but now I'm worried we might not be able to fix it.

Remember lookin' at this room, we loved it 'cause of the light
We used to find joy in this room because of the lighting.

Now, I just sit in the dark and wonder if it's time
I'm in a dark place and questioning if our relationship has run its course.

Do I throw out everything we built or keep it?
I need to decide whether to let go of everything we've built or try to keep it together.

I'm getting tired even for a phoenix
I'm exhausted and drained, even though I'm trying to rise from the ashes like a phoenix.

Always risin' from the ashes, mendin' all her gashes
I'm used to getting back up again and healing my own wounds when things go wrong.

You might just have dealt the final blow
Your recent actions could be the final straw that ends our relationship.

Stop, you're losin' me
I'm starting to lose interest in our relationship, and you need to stop before it's too late.

My heart won't start anymore for you
My heart doesn't feel the same way for you as it once did.

Every mornin', I glared at you with storms in my eyes
I woke up angry and resentful towards you every day.

How can you say that you love someone you can't tell is dyin'?
You say you love me, but you don't seem to notice or care that our relationship is falling apart.

And the air is thick with loss and indecision
There's a lot of sadness, uncertainty, and confusion in the air between us.

I know my pain is such an imposition
I'm aware that my pain and struggles are causing problems and difficulties in our relationship.

Now, you're runnin' down the hallway and you know what they all say
You're trying to leave and avoid the issues we're having, and people are noticing.

You don't know what you got until it's gone
You might not realize how important our relationship was until it's over.

How long could we be a sad song? 'Til we were too far gone to bring back to life?
How much longer can we keep going with this unhappy relationship before it becomes impossible to salvage?

I gave you all my best me's, my endless empathy
I tried my best to be understanding, supportive, and compassionate towards you.

And all I did was bleed as I tried to be the bravest soldier fighting in only your army
I sacrificed myself and put my wellbeing and needs after yours, without receiving the same level of care in return.

Frontlines, don't you ignore me
I've been fighting for us on the frontlines, and you can't ignore my efforts.

I'm the best thing at this party
I know my worth and value in this relationship.

"You're losin' me", and I wouldn't marry me either
I'm seeing signs that you're losing interest in me, and I don't blame you because I wouldn't want to be with me either.

A pathological people pleaser, who only wanted you to see her
I have a tendency to constantly please others and prioritize their happiness over mine, to the point where I lost sight of my true self in our relationship.

"Do something, babe, say something" (say something) "Lose something, babe, risk something" (you're losin' me) "Choose something, babe, I got nothing to believe, unless you're choosin' me"
I'm pleading with you to take action and do something to save our relationship, to risk something by prioritizing our connection, and to choose me above everything else.
