Nothing Left
Millionaire Lyrics

The song "Nothing Left" by Millionaire seems to be a reflection on human nature and our inability to change, even when we know we should. The first set of lyrics, "Why can't I change? Change into a stuff they make up to forget what they mean when they talk to themselves. It helps them forget that there's bones underneath and their soul is a gift" seem to be a commentary on how we often indulge in material things or superficial activities as a way of avoiding facing deeper truths about ourselves. We try to distract ourselves from the fact that we are mortal beings with complex emotional and spiritual needs, and instead focus on things that are easy to understand and consume.

The next set of lyrics, "Why can't I change? Change into a fresh air with healthy genes, terrible deal, just like a perfect machine. Into a rock, outside the flock, instead of a hog trying to be like a dog" further explores this idea of wanting to change but feeling stuck in our ways. Here, the singer describes wanting to become something better, like a healthy machine or a strong rock, but feeling like they are instead like a hog trying to be like a dog - trying to fit in or be something they're not.

The final set of lyrics, "Do they expect to profit from those years that they spend on their couches. Unbuckle the belt and not bother, it's them and everyone else. The future is here and past fading fast, enjoying comes first and praying comes last. But there is no time, there is nothing left" seem to be a critique of our modern society's obsession with instant gratification and consumption. The singer questions whether or not we can truly profit from spending our years on the couch, wasting away and not bothering to change anything. They suggest that the future is already here and our past is quickly fading, and so we should focus on enjoying life now. However, they also remind us that there is no time left - we cannot keep wasting our days on meaningless pursuits.
