Best Nothing To Lose Poems


Nothing To Lose
Broken, Cold, Empty, Devoid of hope
These are the forgotten generation
These are the few who stood up
The young that fell for such a cause

Lost, scarred, unremembered,
These boys sent with hope of glory
Learn instead what it costs
To die a nameless death

Over they go with nothing to lose
Over...

Nothing To Lose
When you are pushed back by your foes
When your very friends desert you,
When you have reached a dead end
And have nowhere to go;
Then spark off with a blast
That will destroy all humiliation -
And the world will behold your light;
Filled with an amazing sensation.

When your heart...

Nothing To Lose
Nothing to lose 

My psyche is in disarray
Feeling under constant duress
I throw tantrums
As emotions wreak havoc with my senses

My life is not my own
I feel unable to be me 

Everyone wants a piece of me
No one wants to know who I am
They wish to rearrange...

Nothing to Lose?

I’ve got no money in the bank
Can’t afford to fill my tank
I haven’t got any property
I live in a town called poverty
I don’t want to die of cold
I’m not anxious to grow old
So nuclear war sounds good
Cause there’s no Robin Hood
For once only...

On a California day
I stand toes in the sand 
Sipping the sanguine truth.
That deep blue water 
Has laid many a man to rest.
To me it is like a dream
Both real and out of grasp.

I dream of row boats
And a woman in a summer dress.
We talk...

Nothing To Lose
When you've got nothing..
You've got nothing to lose.
No possessions or ties, just an empty expanse..
No love to hold onto, just a fleeting glance.

When you've got nothing..
You've got nothing to choose.
No options or paths, just a vast emptiness..
No dreams to pursue, just a state of restlessness.

When...

Every time I hear this song, I think of you
I imagine you singing it to me, although you haven’t before
But as a musician, I can hear your voice
Reaching others everywhere you go
Music has a way of making our souls dance
These meaningful inner-steps we take inside
A...

Nothing To Lose
I don’t know what to do.
I want to get back to you,
I need to get back to you.
I love you,
don’t you see that?
I still love you.
I have nothing to lose.
I need you.
I’ll drop everything for you.
Please don’t leave me.
Please don’t leave me....

Nothing to win nothing to lose
There is lots of work to be done
But there is nothing to be won
There are people that I have to greet
And promises that I have to keep.

The barking dogs in the street
Have nothing to eat they roam 
The streets all night putting up
A fight attacking...
