Nothing Left
Overdrive Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This world is desolate; these clouds are reminiscent
Of all of God's mistakes; how could we seal our fate?
The beauty that we've ridden, the sins that aren't forgiven
This world will never last

If I told you my world was ending
Would you take my hand again?
If I told you our love was never ending
Would you leave me here alone?

The countless debts we've paid, this world we took in vain
The flower slowly wilts; I feel a growing guilt
The beauty that we've ridden, the love that is forbidden
This world will never last

If I told you my world was ending
Would you take my hand again?
If I told you our love was never ending
Would you leave me here alone?

The countless lives we've ridden, the sins that aren't forgiven
This world will never last
The beauty that we've ridden, the love that is forbidden
This world will never last

If I told you my world was ending
Would you take my hand again?
If I told you our love was never ending
Would you leave me here alone?

If I told you my world was ending
Would you take my hand again?




If I told you our love was never ending
Would you leave me here alone?

The opening line quickly establishes the tone: "This world is desolate; these clouds are reminiscent / Of all of God's mistakes; how could we seal our fate?"

The idea of guilt and regret is prevalent throughout the song, as the flower in the lyrics slowly wilts. The chorus asks a series of questions about whether the love between two individuals would remain in the face of impending disaster, including the possibility of the world ending altogether.


Overall, the lyrics to "Nothing Left" paint a bleak picture of a world that has been ravaged by its own mistakes. The lyrics suggest that despite moments of beauty and love, the sins and debts of the world will ultimately catch up with it, leaving nothing but desolation in their wake.

Of all of God's mistakes; how could we seal our fate?
We have made so many mistakes, how can we expect God to save us?


The beauty that we've ridden, the sins that aren't forgiven
We have enjoyed the beauty of this world but have committed unforgivable sins


This world will never last
The world is doomed and will not endure


If I told you my world was ending
If I confided in you that my life is coming to an end


Would you take my hand again?
Would you comfort and support me like you did before?


If I told you our love was never ending
If I assured you that my love for you will last forever


Would you leave me here alone?
Would you abandon me in this dark time?


The countless debts we've paid, this world we took in vain
We have accumulated many debts and taken the world for granted


The flower slowly wilts; I feel a growing guilt
As the flower fades away, my sense of guilt grows stronger

Would you abandon me to face the end alone?


This world will never last
The world is fleeting and will not endure


The beauty that we've ridden, the love that is forbidden
We have enjoyed fleeting pleasures and love that is not meant to be


If I told you my world was ending
If I shared the news of my impending demise


Would you take my hand again?
Would you stay with me till the very end?


If I told you our love was never ending
If I promised you eternal love


Would you leave me here alone?
Would you abandon me and break my heart?
