Losing My Cool

Everybody's watching me, watching you

But this ain't gonna go the way I want it to

I've played this night a thousand times in my dreams

But standing here in front of you

I can't breathe

Don't need to admit this to know that it's true

There's fire in your eyes and I'm blinded by you

I'm searching for something better to say

I wanna be gold but you turn me to gray

And all that fire it burns right through

And I can't fight it, I'm losing my cool

And all that glitter, like wasted jewels

It all falls down because I'm losing my cool

I'm losing my cool, losing my cool

Losing my cool, losing my cool

Standing on the dark side of the dance floor

Trying to find protection from your smile

My heart is like a drum beat in the jungle

It's running with the tigers, running wild

I'm back in the corner, I'm covered with lies

I'm praying for water to put out the fires

And my imagination is burning away

I wanna be gold but you turn me to gray

And all that fire it burns right through

And I can't fight it, I'm losing my cool

And all that glitter, like wasted jewels

It all falls down because I'm losing my cool

It's too late, yeah, the rest is truth

I know this time, I'm, I'm losing my cool

My heart's unfrozen, the ice runs through

And I can't stop myself, I'm losing my cool

My heart starts to beat faster

As I see you move towards me

I think, This is it, what will you say?

But you walk straight past me

Into the arms of somebody else

And I'm left alone, again

And all that fire it burns right through

And I can't fight it, I'm losing my cool

And all that glitter, like wasted jewels

It all falls down because I'm losing my cool

It's too late, yeah, the rest is truth

I know this time, I'm, I'm losing my cool

My heart's unfrozen, the ice runs through

And I can't stop myself, I'm losing my cool

Losing my cool, I'm losing my cool

Losing my cool
