Am I losin’

The day is sad and lonely and the sky has turned into black
The morning sun is just burned out and I feel the night is night back
How about you?
I bury my bones in a deep black hole, put a candle right beside
I’m digging for gold in my private mine, black is the night
How about you?

Am I losin’ on the way all the precious strength I need today?
Or am I losin’ on the way the inhibition to pray
And all the repressed tears I keep inside?

I am going out to see a friend of mine but they tell me he is dead
I look around I am so confused 
Tell me where is Mum and Dad?
Don’t know what to do
Well, I don’t know what I’ve been told
I am your friend
I am wandering around in this giant maze
I need a guiding hand
Don’t know what to do

Am I losin’ on the way all the precious strength I need today?
Or am I losin’ on the way the inhibition to pray
And all the repressed tears I keep inside?

I promise to stop this evil way to change my way of life
No more pain and no more fears
No more use to compromise
That’s true
Living on the edge, I am diving too deep
I am dancing on the ridge
Looking for a n bubble
A suspension bridge
That’s true

Am I losin’ on the way all the precious strength I need today?
Or am I losin’ on the way the inhibition to pray
And all the repressed tears I keep inside?

Am I losin’ on the way my suspicious mind and all of the bad dream
Or am I losin’ on the way the cover of the gleam 
To get a chance for today?
To get a chance for today?
To get a chance for today?
