In this introspective track by Suicidal Tendencies, the narrator expresses feelings of frustration, detachment, and existential inertia. The lyrics delve into the consequences of blindly following others, leading to a sense of disenchantment and dissatisfaction with life. Phrases like "nothing to lose" underscore a state of emotional and psychological abandonment where risks seem inconsequential because the narrator feels they have already hit rock bottom. The repeated admission of having "nothing to lose" conveys a kind of nihilistic freedom, suggesting that this perceived lack of stakes allows for uninhibited choices, even if they lean towards self-destruction. The song juxtaposes themes of anger, hopelessness, and a stark confrontation with one's own mental and emotional limits, encapsulating the inner turmoil of feeling stripped of purpose or positive connection.
Nothing to Lose
Lyrics
You said you knew the but way
I followed you but I don't like where it got me
So trust me when I say it yes I mean it
This is the truth there's no fine line in between it
Trust me I got nothing to lose
Trust me I got nothing to lose
Let go let go
Let's go let's go
Let go let's go
I got nothing to lose
It's easy to choose when you've got nothing to lose
Sometimes it seems so different
But for no reason my thoughts become indifferent
Now for too long I've lost my bearing
I pull inside but can't stop the rip and tearing
Trust me I've got nothing to lose
Trust me I've got nothing to lose
So hard to live, so hard to breathe, so hard to smile, nothing to lose
I hate the world, I hate my life
I hate myself, nothing to lose
Why can't I laugh, why can't I love, why can't I feel, nothing to lose
This ain't no threat, this ain't a ploy, it's just a fact, nothing to lose
It's easy to choose 'cause I've got nothing to lose Nothing to lose
I got nothing to lose
Ain't got nothing to lose
It's easy to choose when you've got nothing to lose
Hard life no I don't think so
A different time and it's just the way that things go
Maybe I got it all wrong
I shouldn't care about their problems I'll just stay strong
It's easy to choose 'cause I've got nothing to lose
