Losing Myself
Navigating Love's Uncertainty: Losing Myself by Plain White T's
Lyrics
Stuck in the moment at ten past nine.
Feeling stuck in the current moment at 10:09 PM.
Don't know if she's showing.
Uncertain if the person he's thinking about is revealing her feelings.
I wish she would tell me what was on her mind.
Wishing she would communicate what's on her mind.
I can't stand not knowing.
Unable to tolerate the uncertainty and lack of knowledge.
Why am I here?
Questioning the purpose of being in this situation.
She used to say I was the love of her life.
Reflecting on a past when he was considered the love of her life.
Lately, she ain't showing.
Recently, she's not expressing affection or commitment.
I used to say, she's gonna make a good wife.
Previously believed she would make a good wife.
Where is this thing going?
Questioning the direction and future of the relationship.
Why am I here?
Reiterating the uncertainty and purpose of being in this situation.
Why am I here?
Repeating the sense of confusion and questioning.
Every word I write, I can't help losing myself.

Every kiss goodnight, I can't help losing myself.
Each goodnight kiss intensifies the feeling of losing himself emotionally.
I can't help losing myself in you.
Admitting an inability to resist losing himself in the person he loves.
Stuck in a moment, now it's 10:09
Still stuck in a confusing moment, now at 10:09 again.
No way she is showing.
Uncertain if she is making her feelings evident.
These games she play aren't even worth my time.
Considering her actions as games not worth his time.
Where is this thing going?
Continuing to question the direction of their relationship.

Now, what can I do?
