Losing My Mind
Sue Matthews Lyrics

The lyrics to Sue Matthews's song "Losing My Mind" convey a sense of desperation and longing for a lost love. The singer is consumed by thoughts of this person from the moment she wakes up in the morning, throughout the day and into the night. She wonders if this person truly loved her or if she is just deluding herself into thinking that they did. The repetition of the line "It's like I'm losing my mind" emphasizes the intensity of her feelings and the sense of being lost without this person in her life.

The line "All afternoon, doing every little chore" suggests that the singer is trying to distract herself from thoughts of this person, but to no avail. The image of standing in the middle of the floor, not going left or right, conveys a sense of paralysis, as if she is unable to move on without this person. The use of the phrase "dim the lights" is interesting, as it suggests a desire to retreat into darkness and solitude, to wallow in her feelings, and to indulge in her obsession.
