A foreigner straight out of nowhere
A castaway, I might be in your eyes
You call me poor, but all I care
The smell of bread in my own paradise

You welcome me into your home
And treated me like I was your own
The peace that's finally in my soul
From years of being all alone

Around the people who I love
United with a bond of trust
Just staying here in my abode
I'm fine with who I am, I thought

You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose
(You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose)

The nation's getting so much bigger
I could be more, I finally realized
(The nation's getting so much bigger, I could be more, I finally realized)

He offered me a higher power
A traitor as an angel in disguise
(He offered me a higher power, a traitor as an angel in disguise)
You left me here, I'm all alone
Surviving while I'm on my own
The land I loved has lost its soul

The tyranny of those who won
They took away my liberty
And strangled me, I couldn't scream

I'm running far away from here
Where I can live, where I can't fear

You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose
You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose

(I need it back)
I don't care if a war is about to happen
You brought it into you
(I'll bring it back)

We'll soon be back in these four walls
(We need it back)
I'm gonna raise the banner higher
I'm coming home to you
(No turning back)

I may be weak, but I will fight
Prepared to lay down my whole life
(You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose)
You know what they say 'bout a girl who has nothing to lose
