about

In the early 2000’s, I went through an extremely traumatic experience. It literally shook my world. Now, almost 20 years later, it still haunts me. I wrote this song in 2003 about the person who put me through this life-altering experience and what I was feeling at the time.

I have not had the desire to record this song… until now. It is therapeutic to “let this go”, and perhaps other people will be able to relate in their own ways, as we have all been hurt by someone we thought we knew and trusted.

lyrics

I FEEL LIKE I'M LOSING - © Rick Ivanoff 2003

I feel like I’m losing, I feel like I’m losing control
This wasn’t my choosing, but you stuck a knife in my soul

I feel like I’m losing, I feel like I’m losing my sanity
I get up in the morning, and I start screaming profanity

You take revenge on the ones that get close, afraid they'll discover
Your heart is a story that's covered in scars, put there by your father

You live in a strange world, of hatred and lies you control,
Devoid of compassion, who let you out on parole?

Your anger and ego will eat you inside, just look in the mirror
People will learn that it’s true what they say, that you should fear her

I feel like I'm losing, I feel like I'm losing control,
You stuck a knife in my heart, You tried to steal my own soul

And all the damage you've done, and lives that you've ruined,
Just how much more damage are you, planning on doing

I feel like I'm losing, I feel like I'm losing control,
You go on abusing, looking for desperate lost souls

I don’t know how long you’ll last in this world, before you discover
The ones that get close to your heart will find out, and they’ll run for cover

I feel like I'm losing, I feel like I'm losing control,
You stuck a knife in my heart, but you can’t have my soul

How can you go on believing that you, you are the victim
I know what it’s like because I am the one, the one who was bitten
