Lose My Head


I know that I'm no angel
I have seen myself from every angle
Now I'm right outside your door

Some positive rejection
Foreshadowing frustration
Feels like I've been here before
But I'm saving it all for the morning after

Cause I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head

The view from this position is of my inhibitions
Torn apart and scattered on the floor
Now am I taking myself too seriously
Don't I know by now that eventually
All that it takes is to love my mistakes
So I'm saving it all for the morning after

And I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head

There's gotta be a million things that could be said
But I don't go for talking when I lose my head
Like the pouring rain
I can't explain
I go insane
Baby when I lose my head
Baby when I lose my head

Saving it up for the morning after
Not going to slow down
I'm moving faster
I'm saving it all for the morning after.

And I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head

There's gotta be a million things that could be said
But I don't go for talking when I lose my head
Like the pouring rain
I can't explain
I go insane
Baby when I lose my head
Baby when I lose my head

And I don't need my conscience when I lose my head
Got all of my excuses lying in your bed
It's like tasting lightning striking and I need you to find me
Baby when I lose my head

Saving it up for the morning after
Not going to slow down
I'm moving faster
I'm saving it all for the morning after.


Now and then, I wish that I could be a little more carefree like these girls, a little more willing to lose my inhibitions and a little more willing to show the me that is burning inside and the me that is so out of the box. I have my moments and like to think that I know the right time and place to act a certain way, but I wonder if I hold back just a little bit too much.

    I agree, this is the best part and the best thing we can do right now is accept the mistakes as actions that seemed right at the moment. We are too young to care so much. Now is the best time to be carefree.
