Nelson Lyrics

Album: Because They Can

Nobody Wins In The End Lyrics

Your first hello, the darkness is broken 

You're scared, I know, the wheels are in motion 

It's opening night for the show of your lifetime, my friend 

The days roll by, you live for tomorrow 

Against the tide, in an ocean of sorrow 

Well, is it all worth it if nobody wins in the end? 

We learn as a child to carry the pain and hide it away in the dark 

We've all lived this charade, but I don't wanna play anymore 

Chorus: 

Give me love for the rest of my life 

Give me hope for the rest of my days 

I'm tired of watching the world slip away 

There's one thing you must understand 

When there's no forgiveness then nobody wins in the end 

You've come of age (you're a slave), a slave and a soldier 

You fight the rage (every day), but you heart's growing colder 

You're starting to wonder if nobody wins in the end 

You know, I'd rather die than keep living the lie we've become 

Chorus 

I wanna break free! I won't let these fools hold me down! 

I'm gonna spread my wings and fly 

It's time to go, the curtain is falling 

The final show, a new play is calling 

Just one thing to give you; take it or leave it, my friend 

If we don't come together, then nobody wins in the end
