The Head And The Heart's "Lost In My Mind" is a testament to living in the moment and valuing happiness. Ultimately its message boils down to being able to accept yourself and your position in life, valuing the things that really matter in life, like "the stars up above" rather than work and money – "bricklaying" and our "hands getting filled." Jonathan Russell, the lead singer, calls us to be honest with ourselves: are we satisfies with the conventional life we're living? If not, we should own up to our position so that "we can start moving forward"
The speaker in this song is Jonathan Russell, a guitarist, percussionist, vocalist and lyricist from Virginia. Russell partly sings this song to his brother. Jonathan thinks his brother is too focused on material pursuits, and isn't happy on the inside because he doesn't spend enough time after abstract pursuits. So in essence, Russell is singing out of deep empathy for his brother's situation. This motive sets the tone for the song.
