Nothing To Lose
M.L.T.R Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The sun is shining
There's always a silver lining
I know that you're trying
But sometimes
It's just about timing, baby
There's no need to fight (No no)
You're not always right (No no)
It's time to flow
Get dressed and go
I'm out the door
It's time to flow
Get dressed and go
I'm out the door

I know things are moving slow
And you feeling low
But there is so much to do
I believe you
There's nothing to lose
You'll live the life you choose, huh

It's time to flow
Get dressed and go
I'm out the door (I'm out the door)
It's time to flow
Get dressed and go
I'm out thе door

It's time to flow
Get dressеd and go
I'm out the door

It's time to flow
Get dressed and go
I'm out the door

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of "Nothing to Lose" by Michael Learns to Rock encapsulate the rebellious, adventurous spirit of the song. Lost at the edge of time, the singer is unencumbered by concerns over money, feeling free to live according to his own desires. The chorus, "You got nothing, nothing to lose / Street life, paying your dues / Gonna sing the young man blues" reflects this attitude, expressing a sense of defiance and youthful energy. The use of the phrase "young man blues" in particular invokes a sense of raw, unrestrained emotion, a feeling that reflects the chaos and confusion of adolescence.


The song then builds to a powerful bridge in which we see the singer embrace his own sense of power: "Loose gun and I can't be beat / White trash kickin' the street / A city brat gone far from home / A city brat don't want anymore." This portrayal of the "loose cannon" archetype, often seen in rock and roll music, is notable for its memorable, slightly menacing tone. The chorus repeats at the end, underscoring the idea that the singer has nothing to lose and is willing to risk everything.


This gritty, rebellious feel is reflected in the song's hard rocking instrumentation, which features a driving beat, distorted guitars, and a powerful vocal performance by Jascha Richter. Taken together with the lyrics, it's a reminder of the power of rock and roll to channel raw emotions and express deep-seated feelings of anxiety, passion, and excitement.

Lyrics
-
There are times when you make me laugh
there are moments when you drive me mad
there are seconds when I see the light
though many times you made me cry

There's something you don't understand
I want to be your man

[Chorus:]
Nothing to lose
your love to win
hoping so bad that you'll let me in

I'm at your feet
waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to lose

There are times when I believe in you
these moments when I feel close to you
there are times I think that I am yours
though many times I feel unsure

There's something you don't understand
I want to be your man

[Chorus:]
Nothing to lose
your love to win
hoping so bad that you'll let me in

I'm at your feet
waiting for you
I've got time and nothing to lose

I'll always be around you
keep an eye on you
cos my patience is strong
and I won't let you run
cos you are the only one

Nothing to lose
your love to win
hoping so bad that you'll let me in

I'm at your feet
waiting for you
I've got time and nothing
