Nothing To Lose Lyrics
Don't tell me life can be unkind
How the goals you thought you'd reach
You can never find
Because it's all work
Ain't nothing free
Too bad you had to learn
At the expense of me
I'm tired of the lies I hear
Why do you feel the need
To dismiss your act's of selfishness
Why can't you own up to your own greed?
Nothing to lose and nothing to gain
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same
So much for my trust in you
My once long time friend
You've done the damage you can do
A waste of energy you expend
I've done nothing dishonest to you
You lit the flame that burnt this bridge
And from all I see and hear
The guilt is laying heavy on your head.
Nothing to lose and nothing to gain
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Think of all the energy you've wasted
Trying to get even
Nothing comes from bringing others down
I'm all out of sympathy
You've took what you could take from me
Squander your ill gotten fortune found.
Nothing to lose and nothing to gain
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same
How the goals you thought you'd reach
You can never find
Because it's all work
Ain't nothing free
Too bad you had to learn
At the expense of me
Why do you feel the need
To dismiss your act's of selfishness
Why can't you own up to your own greed?
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same
My once long time friend
You've done the damage you can do
A waste of energy you expend
I've done nothing dishonest to you
You lit the flame that burnt this bridge
And from all I see and hear
The guilt is laying heavy on your head.
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Trying to get even
Nothing comes from bringing others down
I'm all out of sympathy
You've took what you could take from me
Squander your ill gotten fortune found.
You're still right where you've always been
Nothing ever seems to change
Nothing to prove or to be explained
You get what you deserve
In the end it's really all the same

pulley second best song (behind "Gone") sounds like the fuckin police or sumthing. pulley are fucked up, there like half ska, half punk, half rock, half classic rock too, fucked up i tell you. good song
now how in the fuck can you 4 halves? god damn. do people even realize when they're exposing their ignorance like this?
ah yeS! ahahhaha it does for sure sound like the police ahh! haha! hm. yes good song
very good song. in theory, four halves are entirly possible of two different objects.....blah blaha blaha but then again pulley is not two things.
yeah, i never thought of the police but i can definatly feel it. it a good song, typical pulley lyrics: straight to the point...
and nothingface555, ur a tool.
Cops? No, I definitely no not believe this song is about cops. To me, it makes way more sense about a really selfish friend, who wants everything, but won't work for it, and then gets mad when you don't give it to them. So they do something that ends the friendship, and then they wonder why they're not still not happy.
But thats just me.
RavenSan: not police, but The Police. You know, "Roxanne," "Message in a Bottle," and so on?
That being said, I don't really hear the similarity. Where's the reggae vibe? Sting's sometimes grating falsetto?
