Same Dumb Excuse (Nothing To Lose) Lyrics
I should be brave with nothing to lose
That's how I was until the day I met you
Now I'm afraid that I don't know what to do
A couple of things I really gotta tell you
Dive off a cliff
Jump off a plane
All sound easier than what I gotta say
Go for a swim
Sharks in the sea
All sound easier than me telling it to you straight
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
To get you to laugh
Get you to smile
Get you to tell the world that your on my side
Make me a star
Atleast in your eyes
Take on the world but first I gotta make you mine
Dive off a cliff
Jump off a plane
All sound easier than what I gotta say
Go for a swim
Sharks in the sea
All sound easier than me telling it to your face
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
No the words ain't coming out
But tonight it's going down
I should be brave with nothing to lose
That's how I was until the day I met you
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
No the words ain't coming out
But tonight it's going down
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
That's how I was until the day I met you
Now I'm afraid that I don't know what to do
A couple of things I really gotta tell you
Jump off a plane
All sound easier than what I gotta say
Go for a swim
Sharks in the sea
All sound easier than me telling it to you straight
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
Get you to smile
Get you to tell the world that your on my side
Make me a star
Atleast in your eyes
Take on the world but first I gotta make you mine
Jump off a plane
All sound easier than what I gotta say
Go for a swim
Sharks in the sea
All sound easier than me telling it to your face
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
But tonight it's going down
That's how I was until the day I met you
I got nothing to lose but you
If I just say nothing
You'll never hear the truth
I can't keep using the same dumb excuse 'cause
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
I got nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose but you
But tonight it's going down
I got nothing to lose but you

he really likes a girl but he's too shy or nervous or whatever to approach her and really he's got nothing to lose since they aren't even together, but he still can't bring himself to tell her how he feels
I agree with soulglowactivatur, except I also think that the two are best friends and he wants to tell her how he feels, and when he says "I got nothing to lose, but you" that means that their friendship could be over in a split second, and the truth that he needs to tell her is killing him inside and he is afraid to tell her, which is the "Dive off a cliff part".
Anyways I love this song, and my interpretation pretty much sums up my current situation, so maybe that's why I see this song like that.
