Krystl (her real name) is a happy 28-year-old singer who, as a child, focused on dancing. When she was seventeen she noticed she could sing and found an even bigger passion in singing than she had previously found in dancing. She got accepted to the conservatory in Rotterdam,Netherlands by accident: she went along to sing at the audition of a friend. One of the teachers was so impressed by Krystl's voice that she offered Krystl an education on the school. After a year Krystl switched conservatories and started studying in Enschede, where she graduated.
Meanwhile Krystl got a lot of experience from singing with multiple bands, especially being the lead singer in the band L.I.N.E. The band split up a few days before they were supposed to sign their recording contract. Thankfully Universal offered Krystl the chance to sign a contract of her own so she could pursue a solo career.
Krystl has spent the past two years figuring out what musical style fitted her best. The first result was the single 'Golden Days', which immediately entered the charts. The song became 3FM Megahit which resulted in Krystl becoming one of 3FM's 'Serious Talents' and two nominations for the 3FM Awards. 'I couldn't have wished for a better start with 'Golden Days'. The song is a good representation of my album 'Rolling', which features songs that are easy to listen to, just like 'Golden Days''. After 'Golden Days', Krystl released two other successfull singles, 'Bottles' and 'Fool For You'.
Krystl's record reminds of summer. 'It definitely has a summer vibe; I'd play it on a warm evening with the windows open. Or in the car, to cheerfully drive towards your destination. It's not a record that's meant to be played as background music, the songs are too catchy for that. I suggest people dance to them!'
Losing My Head
Krystl Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Been up all night, up all night
Hit the ground
Put up a fight, put up a fight, oh-oh-oh
Lying here, I feel so cold
Waiting for it to take hold
Gets under my skin, I′m gonna give in
I'm losing my head
I′m losing my head
The voices I dread
But I can't drown them out
I'm on the floor in a million pieces
I got nothing but a million reasons
For losing my head, losing my head
All for what?
I don′t know, I don′t know
So take the lot
My mind, my body, and my soul, oh-oh-oh
I wish that I could walk away
But here it comes like yesterday
Gets under my skin, I'm gonna give in
Like the last time
I′m losing my head
I'm losing my head
The voices I dread
But I can′t drown them out
I'm on the floor in a million pieces
I got nothing but a million reasons
For losing my head, losing my head (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Don′t wait until the nightmare's over (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Lying here just undercover (oh-oh, oh-oh)
There must be ways to leave this tunnel (oh-oh, oh-oh)
Gettin' myself out of this trouble
I′m losing my head (my head, my head)
I′m losing my head
The voices I dread
But I can't drown them out (no)
I′m on the floor in a million pieces
I got nothing but a million reasons
For losing my head, losing my head
I fall down
Been up all night, up all night
The lyrics to Krystl's song "Losing My Head" convey a sense of desperation and vulnerability in the face of internal struggles. The singer begins by describing a state of exhaustion and weariness, as they have been up all night and are metaphorically falling down. Despite feeling cold and defeated, they still put up a fight, experiencing a battle within themselves.
The lyrics suggest that the singer is haunted by their own thoughts and anxieties. They feel overwhelmed by the voices in their head that they dread, but are unable to drown them out. This constant internal turmoil is causing them to feel fragmented and scattered, as if they are on the floor in a million pieces. They acknowledge that they have numerous reasons for feeling this way, but are unsure of the specific cause, expressing a sense of confusion and uncertainty.
The chorus of the song highlights the recurring theme of losing control and feeling overwhelmed. The singer repeatedly states that they are losing their head, emphasizing the extent to which their inner struggles are consuming them. They express a desire to escape and walk away from this turmoil, but recognize that it continues to haunt them like a never-ending cycle. Ultimately, the song captures feelings of helplessness, the difficulty of escaping from negative thoughts, and the toll it takes on one's mental and emotional well-being.
