Hannes' father suffered a long parkinsons disease, making him lose one capability after the other. This song is inspired by this and a friend who lost her eyesight. Also check out the video on youtube.
lyrics
It is not the radio
It is the alarm clock
It's no use to keep hitting snooze
You're searching for your glasses now
They're on your head
You left them on last night when you went to bed
The trees
are throwing off their leaves
While you're sitting there losing your teeth
You are losing it, losing it
You are losing it, losing it
You can't do a thing to stop it from happening
You could use somebody now
who’s on your side
when you’re serious about the ghosts you see at night
You feel observed they’re chasing you
they want the mouse dead
The trap is triggered and snaps and who knows who’s next
You are losing it, losing it
You are losing it, losing it
You can't do a thing to stop it from happening
You are losing it, losing it
You are losing it, losing it
You can't do a thing to stop it from happening
to stop it from happening
Pretending that it's easy to let go
Flower's ready for spring underneath the snow
You thought that you can keep what you have found
When surprises lift you up turn it around
