Grey eyes looked so grey...
Bitten once with indecision
I could run all the way...

I turned around
To see the sound
And watched the world explode in the sky

But when I look straight at you...
I'm living a deja vu
There's nothing else to do...
We've got nothing left to lose

For and for the fantasy
We bear it the same everyday
Our lives are shaped by the ones who say
There are no reasons for your mistakes

When I saw you the other day
You made your mark on me
I can wait for a million years
But will you wait for me?

You feel the heat and you feel the need
As I watched them collide in your eyes
You could run away, but what's the use?
You're living a deja vu
There's nothing else to do...

We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...yeah..

Please don't say not a single thing...
Nothing but words, anyway
Is this just a blind obsession...
Or was it destiny?

Let's stick around my secret ground
And watch the world spin into sand
It's when I look straight at you
We're living a deja vu
There's nothing else to do...
We've got nothing left to lose...

We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...

We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose...
We've got nothing left to lose... yeah ..

Overall Meaning

In Wipers' song "Nothing Left To Lose," the singer seems to be reflecting on a past encounter with someone who left a lasting impression on them. The opening stanza describes the singer seeing the person with "grey eyes" and feeling uncertain about what to do or say. Then, the singer remembers turning around and seeing the world "explode in the sky," which could be interpreted as a metaphor for feeling overwhelmed or shocked by the intensity of the moment. However, despite this chaos, the singer feels a sense of familiarity and comfort with the person, as if they are experiencing a deja vu.

As the song progresses, it becomes clear that the singer and the other person have a complicated relationship. They "bear it the same everyday," a phrase that could suggest they are both dealing with some kind of lingering pain or difficult situation. Later, the singer sees the person again and feels as if they are "marked" by them. The singer expresses a willingness to wait for the person, but questions whether they will do the same. The song ends with the singer inviting the person to join them in a secret place where they can watch the world spin and escape the pressures and expectations of the outside world.

Overall, "Nothing Left To Lose" seems to be a song about the complexities of human relationships and the desire to find a sense of meaning or purpose in life, even in the face of adversity.
