Losing My Religion

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 [5]
Oh no I've said too much
I've said enough

That's me in the corner
That's me in the spotlight
Losing my religion [10]
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 [15]
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 [20]
Trying to keep an eye on you
Like a hurt lost and blinded fool
Oh no I've said too much
I've said enough

Consider this [25]
The hint of the century
Consider this
The slip that brought me
To my knees failed
What if all these fantasies [30]
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 [35]

But that was just a dream
That was just a dream
