i know you'll never lose
what's lost inside you
you're burning down the bridges
you've crossed
and you're still around
so nothing's certain
just let go
we deserve it
if i could chose to start it over
i'd exercise more discretion
the lies are abound
and nothing's certain
do you have good intentions?
come on
let go of those affectations
you don't fool anyone
come on
let go
if you want to take on
the years won't say what happened to you
what gains have you earned
what friends have you trampled over
when you're around
nothing's certain
just let go
we deserve it
come on and let go,
come on and let go

    I dont really understand why MTV chose this song as the theme for Battle of the Sexes, although it is a great song... Any thoughts?

Overall about difficult moments of disappointment and vulnerability. Having hope and longing, while remaining optimistic for the future. Encourages the belief that with each new morning there is a chance for things to improve. The chorus offers a glimmer of optimism and a chance at a resolution and redemption in the future. Captures the rollercoaster of emotions of feeling lost while loving someone who is not there for you, feeling let down and abandoned while waiting for a lover. Lost with no direction, "Now I'm up in the air with the rain in my hair, Nowhere to go, I can go anywhere" The bridge shows signs of longing and a plea for companionship. The Lyrics express a desire for authentic connection and the importance of Loving someone just as they are. "Just in passing, I'm not asking. That you be anyone but you”
