Losing Sleep - Charlotte Sometimes

I connect with songs. Lyrics speak to me, and sometimes I get the impression that I feel the words more than a normal person would. I pick up on parts of songs, a certain word, a twist of a phrase...

And it feels right.

It feels like the arrangement of the melody and the words have molded themselves to my being. For the past few days Monkey Majik's Closer To You was it, as of today... I've made up my mind, I won't be losing sleep anymore.

Be the winner you always were
Don't you, don't you dare lose
Be the humble girl you are
Don't cry in stranger's cars
La La goodnight

I'm awake and I've been losing sleep
I've been fighting all my demons
I've been getting weak
'Cause I've been trying, trying, trying
To be anything other than me

Be the star you know you are
Don't you, Don't you dare fail
You can own that balance beam
Two steps forward towards make believe
La La Goodnight

I'm awake and I've been losing sleep
I've been fighting all my demons
I've been getting weak
'Cause I've been trying, trying, trying
To be anything other than me

What a silly dream
Oh silly, silly me
To think I had a handle on this
When I know I know I lose
I know I know I Lose
We both know We both know
That I know I know I know I lose
We both now we both know that
