Nothing Left to Lose

Who do you think you are, gambling with lives again?
Kids up for auction to sate your dumb greed
Who do you think you are, come to petition hearts?
The chips are down, so you beg on your knees

Who do you think you are? Lost all you're livin' for
Surely you see all the harm it brought us
Who do you think you are? Family means nothing now
Not when you're selling your sons and daughters

And I've bet all I have
To see this house collapse

So are you feeling scared now?
Feel that sweat on your brow?
Now you know
I have nothing left to lose

Changing your tune
"Oh, we're so proud of you"
Didn't you hear?
You're no longer what I choose

Don't you underestimate
Victims as they lie in wait
'Cause you can be sure they'll be striking back
Bets are placed and I'm all in
Sure they say the house will win, but
With everything I've been through
You'll learn to fear the one with nothing left to lose

No one left for me
No one to hold on to
But in truth, really was there ever?
Do I regret my choice?
Did I forget myself?
Have I brought on a new contender?

No, I won't doubt myself
Not when the die is cast
The fates have spoken out their conclusion
But did I have a choice?
Is free will truly mine?
Or is my freedom all an illusion?

And I've bet all I have
To see this house collapse

So are you feeling scared now?
Feel that sweat on your brow?
Now you know
I have nothing left to lose
(Left to lose)

Changing your tune
"Oh, we're so proud of you!"
Didn't you hear?
You're no longer what I choose
(What I choose)

Don't you underestimate
Victims as they lie in wait
'Cause you can be sure they'll be striking back
Bets are placed and I'm all in
Sure they say the house will win, but
With everything I've been through
You'll learn to fear the one with nothing left to lose

Spent my every day
Trying to play your game
To appease and please you
Eyes filled with disdain
A candle to a flame
That I must live up to
Your love wasn't real
A fake and petty ploy to manipulate us
Naming your failings, but don't believe a word you're saying

Give me one reason why
I should give up the fight
'Cause if I let you win
Then all of this will be for nothing
And we'll go back to the hell we were in

So are you feeling scared now?
(So are you feeling scared?)
Feel that sweat on your brow?
Now you know
I have nothing left to lose
(I have nothing left to lose)

Changing your tune
"Oh, we're so proud of you"
("Oh, we're so proud of you")
Didn't you hear?
You're no longer what I choose
(You're no longer what I choose)

Don't you underestimate
Victims as they lie in wait
'Cause you can be sure they'll be striking back
Bets are placed and I'm all in
Sure they say the house will win, but
With everything I've been through
You'll learn to fear the one with nothing left to lose
