Losing My Religion (Unplugged, Live 2001)

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]

Oh, 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

[Pre-Chorus]

That's me in the corner

That's me in the spotlight

Losin' my religion

Tryin' 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

[Chorus]

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try

[Verse 2]

Every whisper of every waking hour

I'm choosin' my confessions

Tryin' to keep an eye on you

Like a hurt, lost, and blinded fool

Oh no, I've said too much

I set it up

[Pre-Chorus]

Consider this

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

[Chorus]

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try

[Bridge]

But that was just a dream

That was just a dream

[Pre-Chorus]

That's me in the corner

That's me in the spotlight

Losin' my religion

Tryin' 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

[Chorus]

I thought that I heard you laughing

I thought that I heard you sing

I think I thought I saw you try

[Outro]

But that was just a dream

Try, cry, fly, cry

That was just a dream

Just a dream, just a dream, dream

[Outro, spoken]
