While Feels Like tumbled headlong into the precarious nature of Bognanno's young adult life, Losing is a document of the complexity of growth: navigating breakups with sensitivity, learning not to run away from your troubles but to face them no matter how messy they may be. The debut single, "Feel The Same' is the album opener. Like an electric-shock Bognanno is back in your face tackling the angst of a young person feeling their way through the world. The song describes the prison of a manic mind-set, being trapped in your own head. On "Seeing It" she addresses the issue of personal safety and navigating the world as a woman. On "Running" she focuses on personal relationships and the avoidance of facing the demise of a personal relationship.
Losing is an internal, carefully focused record, a universalized diary and an exorcism-not of any one specific demon, but the host of them that characterize contemporary anxieties. Bully are growing up, sure, but their fire is in no way diminishing.

Bully Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Especially when I'm alone
I watch Mezzi stare at the shed
Play guitar on my bed
But I feel best by the lake
At my dads house I can take
That old bike that my mom
Left behind a very long long time ago
So stand still
Don't you wanna be a part of something bigger
Something strange
Is catching up to you
My old friends come say hi
When I'm in town, they stop by
We're still the same
But we are grown
And we'd all rather just go home
My new friends, they're okay
Not that social anyway
I thought that he would never hit a girl
But I guess you never know
And that's the world
So stand still
Don't you wanna be a part of something bigger
Something strange is catching up to you
Think about it all the time I get so
So far ahead, so far behind
So stand still
Don't you wanna be a part of something bigger
Something strange is catching up to you
The song "Reason" by the band Bully seems to be about finding solace in certain places or moments when life feels overwhelming. The first verse reveals that the singer feels good when they are at home, especially when they are alone. They watch a person named Mezzi stare at a shed while playing guitar on their bed. The singer even feels their best by the lake at their father's house, where they can ride their mother's old bike that has been left behind for a long time. These moments seem to give the singer a sense of peace and comfort.
The second verse introduces the singer's old friends who stop by when they are in town. Although they are still the same people, they are grown and would rather just go home. The singer's new friends are okay but not that social, and there is a sense of disappointment when one of them hits a girl. The chorus of the song emphasizes the importance of standing still and being a part of something bigger. There is something strange catching up to the singer and they want to be a part of that strange thing.
Overall, the song seems to be about finding meaning and connection in life, and how that can be found in different places and people at different moments. The importance of being a part of something bigger is emphasized throughout the song, but it is also recognized that there are moments of solitude and introspection that can be just as valuable.
