Nothin' to win

Hanging out in the streets `till the early day
Love's cold as death or so the shadows say
Sometimes it seems like another put-up game
Of all their secret ties, lovers don't share their pain
Young girls who swear they'll never love again
Young men join the army to forget and to pretend
It's hard, so hard, it's so hard to take
Everybody wins a prize, loser on the make

Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
I just shut my eyes and try to choose
Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
Nothin' don't matter to me

When I needed a friend, I wore my heart on my sleeve
Wrote your name in sand, need a reason to believe
It used to be so easy to forget
Long nights alone with a space cadet

Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
I just shut my eyes and try to choose
Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
Take what you want, take what you need
Nothin' don't matter to me

Hanging out in the street `till the early day
Love's cold as death or so the shadows say
Sometimes it seems like another put-up game
Of all their secret ties, lovers don't share their pain
Young girls who swear they'll never love again
Young men join the army to forget and to pretend
It's hard, so hard, it's so hard to take
Everybody wins a prize, loser on the make

Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
I just shut my eyes and try to choose
Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
Take what you want, take what you need

Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
I just shut my eyes and try to choose
Nothin' to win, nothin' to lose
Take what you want, take what you need
Nothin' don't matter...to me
