“Nothing to Lose” is the eleventh track, and fourth single, from Billy Talent’s self-titled debut album.
This song tells the story of a kid who has no friends, despite what his parents think. He is the invisible kid who keeps to himself, but is bullied. Eventually, he can’t take it anymore and comm...
[Verse 1]
Need more friends with wings
All the angels I know put concrete in my veins
I’d always walk home alone
So I became lifeless just like my telephone
[Chorus]
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There’s nothing to gain
But the days don’t seem to change
[Verse 2]
Never played truth or dare
I’d have to check my mirror to see if I’m still here
My parents had no clue
That I ate all my lunches alone in the bathroom
[Chorus]
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There’s nothing to gain
But the days don’t seem to change
There’s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain
There’s nothing to gain
And I can’t fight the pain
[Verse 3]
Teachers said it's just a phase
When I grow up my children will probably do the same
Kids just love to tease
Who'd know it put me underground at seventeen
[Chorus]
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There’s nothing to gain
But the days don’t seem to change
There’s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain
There’s nothing to gain
And I can’t fight the pain
[Chorus]
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name!
There’s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain
There’s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name!
There’s nothing to gain
And I just died today

A girl came up to me today and told me one of her best friends killed himself last week and that we were one of his favorite bands and would we dedicate that song to him. Stuff like that it takes a different outlo...
