Now Playing #42
Band: REM
Track: Losing My Religion
Time: 4:36

I found this song after CrH recommended the band REM to me; I checked my brother's mp3 collection, and sure enough, there were a few songs by them, heh. I then ended up listening to this song over and over again on loop while writing a post for Zidargh's The Legend of Zelda: Prophecy of Fate RPG, which probably took a couple hours. And it still hasn't gotten old, so I figured I'd get a midi version and put it up on here.

Oh, and as a bit of a sidenote, a few lines of this song are used in Weird Al Yankovic's Polka Your Eyes Out.

Losing My Religion, by REM

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 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
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
Oh no I've said too much
I set it up

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
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 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
I thought that I heard you sing
I think I thought I saw you try

But that was just a dream
Try, cry, fly, try
That was just a dream
Just a dream
Just a dream, dream
