'no longer know what is happening' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I can't judge whether it can be defined by this definition.

'fail to win with song' is the wordplay.
'fail to win' becomes 'lose' (synonyms).
'with' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'song' becomes 'track' (I've seen this before).
'lose'+'track'='LOSE TRACK'

'and' acts as a link.
