The Scribes – Nothing To Lose Lyrics
Lyrics
Verse 1
- I count the ways you try to make my feathers ruffle/
- Run out of pointing fingers it's another day for scuffles/
- The oxygen is lacking you cannot attack my bubble/
- It's a level indicator of the mask that hides my troubles/
- I pick up the shovel so the hatchets won't be found again/
- With every round the sound of heavy pounding from the lion's den/
- Hurtful words/ You might have heard I murder mice and men/
- I try to find a guiding light inside my poison pen/
- An alkaline that blurs the lines and primes the dynamite inside my head/
- Minds a maze my heart's ablaze I find a minotaur instead/
- Stockholm syndrome and beautiful euthanasia/
- I look into the gutter as I suffer human nature/
- Life suffers fools let me school you in the danger/
- Beware the turning tide changing relations to strangers/
- I'll abuse and ridicule for use of any saviour/
- Now I've got nothing to lose I know that I'll return the favour/
Hook
- Break me down/
- Throw me out/
- I don't care/
- I have nothing/
- I have nothing to lose/
Verse 2
- Some days I feel down and out/
- Caught on low points of swings and roundabouts/
- Like there's no point/ Fuck that/ When doubts abound/
- I step on stage like these sprays will drown them out/
- So it's too soon to count me out/
- Pound for pound best spits to bless this/ Loud and proud/
- Then get depressed it's mounting now/
- But I guess the sun means less without the clouds/
- So I'm out of bounds/ Out of hope/
- Out of sight/ Out of mind/
- Out of time/ Out of dope/
- Out of breath/ Nope/
- There's some left in my powder keg throat/
- The out of place outer spaceman now explodes/
- Got it locked like Al Capone/
- Alcohol based confidence with an ounce of woe/
- Doubts are mounting now/
- About to flow/ Wow the show/
- Hit the highs all hypnotised dive down to lows/
Hook
- Break me down/
- Throw me out/
- I don't care/
- I have nothing/
- I have nothing to lose/
