Losing my religion

R.E.M. - Losing My Religion (Original)

Ooh, Life is bigger
It's bigger than you
And 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 a wiev
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,
fool
Oh no I've said too much, I set it up

Consider this, consider this
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip, it brought me
to my knees, failed
What if all these fantasies
Come flailing aground
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 a view
And I don't know if I can do it
Oh no I've said too much
I hadn'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
To Try, Cry, Fly, Try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream


σ.σ. Το άκουσα ξανά μετά από καιρό, ίσως και χρόνια, θαύμασα την εικαστική αρτιότητα του βίντεο κλιπ και θυμήθηκα πόσο με ξεσηκώνει κάθε φορά που το ακούω...

Losing my religion, χάνω τη θρησκεία μου, τη πίστη μου, χάνω τον κόσμο όπως τον ξέρω, μέσα στο όνειρό μου, όπως λέει και στους στίχους. Αλλά όπως καταλήγει, ήταν απλά ένα όνειρο, μονάχα ένα όνειρο...

Καλή ακρόαση, καλό ταξίδεμα στη μαγεία του, Μαριαλένα
