Losing My Mind
Todd Murray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I think about you
The coffee cup
I think about you
I want you so
It's like I'm losing my mind
The morning ends
I talk to friends
I think about you
And do they know?
It's like I'm losing my mind
All afternoon, doing every
Little chore The thought of
You stays bright Sometimes
I stand in the middle of
The floor
Not going left, not going right
I dim the lights
And think about you
Spend sleepless nights
To think about you
You said you loved me
Or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
I want you so
It's like I'm losing my mind
All afternoon, doing every
Little chore The thought of
You stays bright Sometimes
I stand in the middle of
The floor
Not going left, not going right
I dim the lights and think
About you Spend sleepless
Nights to think about you You
Said you loved me
Or were you just being kind?
Or am I losing my mind?
The lyrics to Todd Murray's song Losing My Mind are about the obsession and longing for someone who may or may not love the singer back. The song begins with the singer thinking about their love interest as soon as they wake up, even while they have their morning coffee. The obsession escalates throughout the day as the singer thinks about their love interest constantly, even during conversations with friends. The thought of their love interest is so overwhelming that the singer feels like they are losing their mind. The chorus repeats this sentiment, emphasizing how strong the desire is for this person.
The second verse describes how the singer tries to distract themselves with daily chores, but they cannot shake the thoughts of their love interest. It is clear that the obsession has taken over and the singer feels like they cannot escape it. The bridge of the song is questioning whether their love interest actually loves them back or if they were just being kind. The singer's mind is so consumed with thoughts of this person that they cannot even distinguish reality from their own fantasies.
Overall, Losing My Mind is a song about infatuation and how it can consume a person's thoughts and actions. The lyrics describe the irrationality that comes with being obsessed with someone, and the uncertainty that comes with not knowing if the feelings are mutual.

The sun comes up
Each morning starts without you
I think about you
My mind is consumed with thoughts of you
The coffee cup
Even mundane objects remind me of you
I want you so
My desire to be with you is intense
It's like I'm losing my mind
The depth of my emotions is overwhelming
The morning ends
But my thoughts of you persist
I talk to friends
But no one else can distract me from missing you
And do they know?
Do they understand the extent of my feelings for you?
All afternoon, doing every little chore
I try to keep busy, but thoughts of you persist
The thought of you stays bright
Your memory remains vivid in my mind
Sometimes I stand in the middle of the floor
Overwhelmed by my emotions, I am paralyzed
Not going left, not going right
I am stuck, unsure of what to do next
I dim the lights
I retreat into myself, trying to escape my thoughts
And think about you
But you are still there, haunting me
Spend sleepless nights to think about you
My mind torments me even into the late hours of the night
You said you loved me
But I can't be sure if you meant it
Or were you just being kind?
Or if you were just trying to spare my feelings?
Or am I losing my mind?
Perhaps my love for you has driven me to madness
