LOSING MY RELIGION

OCEAN BEACH

Losing My Religion
R.E.M.
Life is bigger
It's bigger
And you, you are not me
The lengths that I will go to
The distance in your eyes
Oh no, I've said too much
I set it up

That's me in the corner * That's me in the spotlight * Losing my religion * Trying to keep up with you * And I don't know if I can do it * Oh no I've said too much  * I haven't said enough

I thought that I heard you laughing * I thought that I heard you sing * I think I thought I saw you try * Every whisper *
Of every waking hour * I'm choosing my confessions * Trying to keep an eye on you * Like a hurt lost and blinded fool * Oh no, I've said too much * I set it up

Consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing around
Now I've said too much

​
I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
But that was just a dream
That was just a dream


That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion
Trying to keep up with you
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I haven't said enough


I thought that I heard you laughing
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try
​

But that was just a dream, try, cry, why, try
That was just a dream, just a dream, just a dream
Dream
