Nothing left
Oli clipshamTo start something and to follow it to the end
'Cos what you tend to do is just give up instead
Don't dry your eyes until you think we're done here
The rest of what our lives hold starts here today
'Cos this time I'm afraid I just can't let you have your way
This is your last chance
But tight-lipped you let him run away
Are you better off with nothing left?
With no reason left to feel afraid
A loss of patience is the start of loss
A way to prove your point but break their trust
And then the whispers circulate your name
As a friend who slowly fell from fame
Is it beyond you just to do things our way?
Show some loyalty and loved ones never leave
Put up with all the pain with sights on what you could achieve
This is your last chance
But tight-lipped you let him run away
Are you better off with nothing left?
With no reason left to feel afraid
'Cos they'll still never forget you
With black eyes and tired minds
We struggle on through all kinds of fire
Sheer perseverance
And from the bottom of our hearts
We're inspired to reach for what we desire
Our motivation
The thoughts that have saved our lives
This is your last chance
But tight-lipped you let him run away
Are you better off with nothing left?
With no reason left to feel afraid
'Cos they'll still never forget you"
