Song Meaning of “Calling (Lose My Mind) – R3hab & Swanky Tunes Chainsaw Madness Mix” by Sebastian Ingrosso
“Calling (Lose My Mind)” is about letting go and embracing the uncertainty that comes with the journey going forward. It speaks to those times when we feel overwhelmed and find ourselves in the depths of unfamiliarity and fear, a sense of being unable to take control of our lives and seemingly surrounded on all sides by chaos. The song encourages us to take a step back and stay centered in the present moment.
The lyrics paint a picture of a person struggling to hold onto an inner sense of calm while external forces whirl around them. The “chainsaw madness” of life’s trials and tribulations form a chorus from which the protagonist can’t escape. The verses offer a space to breathe and reflect, offering a reminder that no matter what lies ahead, it’s within us to embrace the fear and take the uncertain paths that life will take.
The melodic chaos of the production embodies this feeling of being tossed around by external forces beyond one’s control. The builds and breakdowns in the production give a sense of tension and suspense, as if the listener is walking a tightrope through a madhouse.
The chorus declares that while it’s terrifying to not know what’s to come, it’s worth the challenge to build something for ourselves that’s truly ours.
