NOTHING TO LOSE
Luke Cusato Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We tell ourselves
For a while now
I've been doubting myself
Beneath this skin
There's only bone
I've been feeling uncomfortable
In my own home
I've got nothing to lose
Apart from my hate
Where my self confidence crashed and burned
All till it was dead
If I've nothing at all
Then I've got nothing to lose
I've been doubting religion
For a while
One of the questions I ask myself
Is just simply why
Do my opinions
Make me wrong
And does expressing how I feel
Make me strong
In this only life
In this reality
Which makes it so paranoid
Of this mystery
And that's it live your life
To the best it can be
Oh, I'm always helping others out
Apart from me, myself, I
I've got nothing to lose
Apart from my hate
Where my self confidence crashed and burned
All till it was dead
I've got nothing to lose
And nothing at all
With my mental stability
Like a crumbling wall
I've got nothing to lose
Most of the time
And it seems lately most things I do
Just seem like a crime
Guess we're all just confused
About ourselves
And this box of unanswered questions
Will never help

Take this hand
Let me guide you through the struggles of life
We tell ourselves
We use self-talk to either motivate or demotivate ourselves
For a while now
It has been some time
I've been doubting myself
I have been lacking self-confidence
Beneath this skin
Beyond the physical appearance
There's only bone
There is no substance other than the skeleton
I've been feeling uncomfortable
I have been uneasy with myself
In my own home
In the place where I belong
I've got nothing to lose
I am not afraid of losing anything
Apart from my hate
Except for the negativity within me
Where my self confidence crashed and burned
Where my self-esteem was crushed and destroyed
All till it was dead
Until there was nothing left
If I've nothing at all
If I possess nothing whatsoever
Then I've got nothing to lose
Then I have nothing to risk
I've been doubting religion
I have been questioning religious beliefs
For a while
For some time
One of the questions I ask myself
One of the inquiries I ponder about
Is just simply why
Is an unanswerable one
Do my opinions
Are my thoughts and feelings
Make me wrong
Make me incorrect or invalid
And does expressing how I feel
And does conveying what is inside me
Make me strong
Make me confident and resilient
In this only life
In this one and only chance
In this reality
In this world as it is
Which makes it so paranoid
Which causes suspicion and fear
Of this mystery
Of the enigmatic unknown
And that's it live your life
And that's the only way to live your life
To the best it can be
To achieve the highest potential
Oh, I'm always helping others out
Oh, I always support and assist others
Apart from me, myself, I
Except for myself, my own needs and desires
I've got nothing to lose
I have no fear of losing anything
And nothing at all
And no possessions whatsoever
With my mental stability
Concerning my emotional and psychological well-being
Like a crumbling wall
Like a structure on the verge of collapsing
Most of the time
Usually
And it seems lately most things I do
And recently it seems that most of my actions
Just seem like a crime
Just feel like an offense or wrongdoing
Guess we're all just confused
I suppose we are all uncertain and perplexed
About ourselves
About our own identities
And this box of unanswered questions
And this problem of unresolved inquiries
Will never help
Will never provide a solution
