Nicholas Hamilton
Everything to Lose
[Verse 1]
Looking at the paint on the wall beside me
It chips and it drips like a tear inside me
Sitting, staring at a blank calculator
Making up a day to tell my mummy later

Walking in circles and making a mess
Missing the mark but I'm trying my best
Hitting pause on the play, like I did yesterday
Hit one note and call it a day

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Would the paint still peel if I wasn't here?
Would the walls cave in or disappear?

[Chorus]
And I can't go back
And answer all their q's
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
No I can't go back
And try to face my truth
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose

[Post-Chorus]
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
[Verse 2]
Emotional marathon, lay me down, I'm near death
I never even ran and I'm catching my breath
My day a tinker and a sick guitar riff
Then I chug a cup of water like I'm Paula Radcliffe

Walking in circles and making a mess
Missing the mark but I'm trying my best
Hitting pause on the play, like I did yesterday
Hit one note and call it a day

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Would the lights stay on if I was gone?
Would I just give up or carry on?

[Chorus]
And I can't go back
And answer all their q's
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
No I can't go back
And try to face my truth
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose

[Post-Chorus]
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
[Bridge]
What if I can't go back?
What if I can't stay here?
What if it falls apart?
What if my legs give out?
I'm overwhelmed by fear
What if I break my heart?

[Chorus]
And I can't go back
And answer all their q's
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
No I can't go back
And try to face my truth
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose

[Post-Chorus]
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
Lose, lose
I've got everything to lose
Everything to lose
Lose
