(Not Beyond) Alone
Decide to be free of these previous eons,
Never really so sure why you now always just ignore,
Just trying to stop myself from feeling all the clashes,
Not really sure why I'm left feeling anything but bold,
Jest as you like to leave me without any gold,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
As for now I'll be remembering back then
For I know I'm so unsure what you say is my role,
As you confuse and leave me without a single clue,
And gotta now learn how I can finally become so strong,
Gotta ignore the fact that your heart is ever so cold,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
For there's something that I cannot yet, yet say
For there's something that I cannot yet say,
But even now I'm not beyond alone,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
Not beyond alone,
Not beyond alone,
A time when I shall always ignore,
For this old load isn't any lighter,
Like losing what's in store,
Let me recover but just not beyond alone,
Losing this grip on feeling so smart,
If only I could uniquely ask a love to explore
Just not beyond alone.
Just not beyond alone.

(Heart Still) Shatters
Lie about feeling small
Low about standing up ever tall
For there's nothing like a brawl
Guess heart still shatters to crawl
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to crawl
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to crawl
For I'm not feeling whole
Only now I don't know wish to crawl
Denial of the love being ever minimal
Guess heart still shatters to crawl
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to crawl
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to crawl
Never wanted you to ignore this plea
Even no golden marquee
Every day passes not feeling free
Guess heart still shatters to see
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to see
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to see
Letting me forget priority
A memory passes over recently
So hurt now but so easily
Guess heart still shatters to see
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to see
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to see
But now I struggle to even adore
A hope goes out open doors
Left feeling like that of sore
Guess heart still shatters to ignore
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to ignore
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to ignore
For unsure what's in store
May leave me feeling unsure
Here life isn't yet pure
Guess heart still shatters to ignore
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to ignore
Heart still shatters
Heart still shatters to ignore

Art of losing
Maybe a shock, maybe hard in the beginning
Maybe too soon, maybe numb in the feeling
Losing is losing
Always brings an amount of grief
Even the rich, even the expert
Whether once, whether often
Losing is losing
And deal with it
Whether precious, whether replaceable
Whether unconscious choice, whether paying the price
Losing is losing
But don't be carried with guilt
Whether mysteriously disappeared, whether deeply investigated
Whether destroying your life, whether ruining your happiness
Losing is losing
So start to forgive yourself

Losing Streak
Was I wrong about the world?
It's a beautiful new place
Where else could a creep like me
Meet such a pretty face?
Meeting everyday with the rising sun
Looking up, it's looking like
My losing streak is done
Used to always feel like
Wished that I was dressed better
Never had a lot of luck
Until I finally met her
Feeling like the weepin' weighed a ton
Lifted off my shoulders now
My losing streak is done
Always felt like giving in
To the feeling I can't win
But I took it on the chin
Now I'm finally cashin' in
??? everyday with the rising sun
Looking up, it's looking like
My losing streak is done
My losing streak is done
I said my losing streak is done
Did you hear me, I said
My losing streak is done

Losing You
(orbison-dees)
Teardrops tell me that Im losing you
Lost and lonely and Im losing you
Dreams remind me that Im losing you
Heartaches find me and Im losing you
If you could forget that love affair
I wonder
If you could how much would you still care
Its no use now for Im losing you
No excuse now yes Im losing you
I love you much more than yesterday
In sorrow
I love you less than tomorrow
I love you with all my love today
But I guess I threw your love away
Im losing you
What can I do?
I dont want to but Im losing you.

Baby Im Losing You
Evry time we kiss I feel that somethings missing inside
Evry little glow for me has simply died
What has happened to the love
Happened to the love , the love we knew
Baby Im losing you (losing you), baby Im losing you
Even in my sleep I feel the heartache creep in my dream
All the love you had for me is gone it seems
Oh what have you done to me
Made it plain to see that we are through
Baby Im losing you (losing you),baby Im losing you
I hate to say goodbye to you
But darling what am I to do
Just a toy to play , when you are through , you throw away
Not me
If you dont need me now Ill get along somehow in my pain
Wish little boy, go find another toy for your games
And whats happening to me , Ill get by you see
Now we are through
Baby Im losing you (losing you), baby Im losing you
Baby Im losing you (losing you , baby Im losing you

You lose this time Victoria
And you hide yourself in a room
Like a puppy frightened by some
Firecrackers,
Is this your first time
Losing what you wish
And love?
I see you shrink in the park
On thick black sunglasses
Your fingers fidgety
Beside your hips
You were walking fast
Almost running
In steps rushing like
Elevator stairs,
Away from everyone
Who knows you,
This must be your first time,
Losing,
But you will soon recover,
Tears will dry
And the trembling will soon be over,
You will calm down
On some anti-anxiety drugs,
Relax,
you will soon recover,
But there will be more
Losses to follow,
The thing is
We cannot avoid learning this art
Of losing & recovering,
This is life, Victoria
Welcome, and learn with me,
I will lead you and tell more stories
About myself,
When I was your age
Of questioning and resistance
Like a little child
So confused.

Who Needs Love Like That
Who needs love like that
Theres something going on
Something not quite right
Theres something strange
Happening to me
Theres someone at the door
Hear voices in my head
It seems things arent the way
They ought to be
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
It seemed so clear before
I held my point of view
I kept my conversation
Never changed
Now its all gone wrong
Words are kind of hard
Nothing else around me
Looks the same
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Id like to understand
Like to find out why
I cant remember all
The lines that you said
But then I see your face
And nothing really counts
Dont tell me now
This feeling will stay
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)
Who needs love like that
Who needs love like that
Love can turn you upside-down
And leave you cold
Its plain to see
Youre losing all control
(losing all control)

Map Of Your Head
I'm sick of feeling my soul
To people who'll never know
Just how purposeless and empty they've grown
Because the language confuses like computers refuse to understand how I'm
feeling today
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I saw a liquid control
That gives life to a soul
I hit my head on it and woke up to know
That I was all alone
Wearing just socks and a phone
Someone is screaming like their world might explode
Yeah I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
Freezing and losing my way
I don't want another map of your head
I'm freezing and losing my way
I don't need another map of your head

Something About You
Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres a feelin I know
When Im losing in love
Its the feeling I get when I cant get enough
Something about you babe
Makes me feel the way I do
Know that I love you babe
So ya treat me like a fool
Wanna tell me babe
How I fit into your plan
Dont ya deceive me baby
Im just tryin to be your man cause
Oh nobody ever made me feel the is way
And of I think and dream about you every day
And of I could get you out of my mind
Oh but every time I try to run away
Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres a feelin I know
When Im losing in love
Its the feeling I get when I cant get enough

Something about you baby
Changed the way I look at need
Is it obsession baby
Or just curiosity
Takin advantage baby
Of my sensitivity
Do what you wanna babe
Just back me sanity
Oh no other loves affected me before
Girl you change the rules but I come back for more
Im a player in this game Ill never win
This addictive loves about to do me in
Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres a feelin I know
When Im losing in love
Its the feeling I get when I cant get enough
(something about you baby)
Over and over I try
To get you off my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres something about you baby
When I think about you baby
Theres no doubt about it baby
I know its suicide to stay
But baby everytime I try to run away
Oh its just something about you baby
Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres a feelin I know
When Im losing in love
Its the feeling I get when I cant get enough
Something about you babe
Something about you baby
Something about you babe
Something about you
Over and over and over I try
To get you off of my mind
But I cant win the fight
Theres a feelin I know
When Im losing in love

Fear
what am i most afraid of?
losing my health?
losing my job?
losing my family?
losing my virility?
losing my self-image?
losing my dignity?
losing my sanity?
losing my life?
or ending up alone
in the darkness
without reason or form
or direction.
what am i most afraid of?
and why?

Perfect
Clinging to a hope
Dust that makes me choke
A tiny piece of dirt
Happiness assured can't be too far
Can't be too hard
Traction having slipped
I think I've lost my grip, mine
But not for long, mine
Think I'm losing pressure
Think I'm losing ground
Think I'm losing pressure
Think I'm losing ground
Down falls
Down hurts me much less
So good, so good
So perfect like
How could, how could, how could you try
What for, what for, what better life
Once more, once more it all slips by me...again by me
Think I'm losing pressure
Think I'm losing ground
Think I'm losing pressure
Think I'm losing once more
Put it in a package of perfect like
Leave it in package of perfect size
Never opened up and it can't slip by
It all slips by

She Masters Now The Art Of Losing
at first she lost a coin
then her purse and then her bag and then her blouse
and then her skirt and pants and then it went back to losing her underwears
until she becomes naked
she gets used to losing and when she finally lost herself
she did not complain
she is used to losing she has mastered losing as a form of art itself
she has become an artist and losing has become her main business
now, i have loved her and i am having this problem
of finding her
i guess i must learn too, this art of losing

Cant Stand Losing You
Ive called you so many times today
And I guess its all true what your girlfriends say
That you dont ever want to see me again
And your brothers going to kill me and hes six feet ten
I guess youd call it cowardice
But Im not prepared to go on like this
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant
I cant stand losing you
I cant stand losing you
I cant stand losing you
I cant stand losing you
I see youve sent my letters back
And my lp records and theyre all scratched
I cant see the point in another day
When nobody listens to a word I say
You can call it lack of confidence
But to carry on living doesnt make no sense
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I guess this is our last goodbye
And you dont care, so I wont cry
But youll be sorry when Im dead
And all this guilt will be on your head
I guess youd call it suicide
But Im too full to swallow my pride
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing
I cant, I cant, I cant stand losing...

Running The Risk
Seeing you, watching you
Watching me
I hold back my emotions
I keep them veiled in secrecy
I cant let go of this thing weve started
Wasnt looking for love
No conspiracy of the broken hearted
I dont know how far to go
Until Im gone, gone, gone
I couldnt see the danger
It was just a little taste of temptation
I could not read the silence
That was written on your face
But here comes that feeling again
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im lost drowning in a sea of emotion
Ive got one simple need
I need you to feel my devotion
I dont know how far to go
Until Im gone, yeah gone
Its a complicated picture
Im all tangled up in temptation
I couldnt read the silence
That was written on your face
But here comes that feeling again
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im running the risk of losing you
Im walking this tightrope
Youre my only hope
Theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Losing you
And theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Theres nothing more I can say
Im still running the risk of you walking away
Im running the risk of losing you
Im walking this tightrope
Darling, youre my only hope
Theres nothing more I can do
I keep running the risk of losing you
Im running the risk of losing you
Im telling you honey
This heart of mine cant run the risk
Of losing you again
Everything have made you do
Im still running the risk of losing you

Im Losing You
Here in some strangers room
Late in the afternoon
What am I doing here at all?
Aint no doubt about it
Im losing you
Im losing you
Somehow the wires got crossed
Communications lost
Cant even get you on the telephone
Just got to shout about it
Im losing you
Im losing you
Well, here in the valley of indecision
I dont know what to do
I feel you slipping away
I feel you slipping away
Im losing you
Im losing you
Well now, you say youre not getting enough
But I remind you of all that bad, bad, bad stuff
So what the hell am I supposed to do?
Just put a bandaid on it?
And stop the bleeding now
Stop the bleeding now
Im losing you
Im losing you
Well, well, well
I know I hurt you then
But hell, that was way back when
Well, do you still have to carry that cross? (drop it)
Dont want to hear about it
Im losing you
Im losing you
Dont want to lose you now

Cryin My Heart Out For You
(michael masser/allee willis)
How do you live with a broken heart?
Everytime you come too close
I just run away
I need you so much
And thats so hard to say
There is me and there is you
And I get confused
And sooner or later
I know that Ill have to choose
You know its true
Im crying my heart out for you
What can I do
Im losing myself over you
Over and over again
Im crying my heart out for you
No-one in love likes to lose
How do you live with a broken heart
And I can honestly say
I wanna be on my own
That too bare existence
When I was all alone
I know youre not asking me
To just live for you
But its always how Ive loved
And all I know how to do
You know its true
Im crying my heart out for you
What can I do
Im losing myself over you
Over and over again
Im crying my heart out for you
No-one in love likes to lose
But how do you live with a broken heart?
Once again Im falling in love
Like a fool Im falling in love
And I dont know what Im doing
Once again its somebody else
That I need, Im losing myself
And Im scared of what Im feeling
Its true
Im crying my heart out for you
What can I do
Im losing myself over you
Over and over again
Im crying my heart out for you
No-one in love likes to lose
Once again Im falling in love
Like a fool Im falling in love
And I dont know what Im doing, doing
Once again its somebody else
That I need, Im losing myself
And Im scared of what Im feeling
About you
Im crying my heart out for you
What can I do
Im losing myself over you
Over and over again
Im crying my heart out for you
What can I do
Im losing myself over you
Over and over again

Losing things.
I`ve been losing things,
All my life.
Cameras, people, towels, phones
Lovers, friends.
I am always anxious
For the postman to call.
Losing things.
Waiting for a mirror to fall.
Too suspicious to walk
Under the ladder of it all.
Losing things.
Yet can`t grasp it all.
Losing things.
Objects, losing things.
I`ve been losing touch.
Finding so much
In everything.
Losing things.
