Nothing Left to Lose by The Alan Parsons Project Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Nothing's good the news is bad
The heat goes on and it drives you mad
Scornful thoughts that fly your way
You should turn away cause there's nothing more to say

[Verse 2]
You gave the best you had to give
You only have one life to live
You fought so hard you were a slave
After all you gave there was nothing left to save

[Chorus]
You've got nothing left to lose (you've got nothing left to lose)
No you've got nothing left to lose (who'd wanna be standing in your shoes)

[Verse 3]
You read the book you turn the page
You change your life in a thousand ways
The dawn of reason lights your eyes
With the key you realise
To the kingdom of the wise
[Accordion Solo]

[Chorus]

[Verse 4]
Nothing ventured nothing gained
No more lingering doubt remained
Nothing sacred or profane
Everything to gain
Cause you've nothing left

[Snake Eyes Reprise]
