Win or Lose

Lirik

[Verse 1] You count the exits, I count what remains A worn-out jacket, a pocket of change The room goes quiet when the question arrives I can bend with the crowd or stand with my life [Pre-Chorus] No borrowed answer, no hiding behind I know what it costs, and I’m choosing the line [Chorus] Win or lose, take a stand Put your name where your heart can land Let the safe road disappear behind I’d rather lose awake than win by lying Win or lose, take a stand Hold your ground with both your hands When the verdict comes, I’ll meet its eyes No retreat, no alibis [Verse 2] The old clock stutters above the door Someone says, “You’ve been here before” Maybe I have, but the truth feels new When the choice is mine and it points to you [Pre-Chorus] No borrowed answer, no hiding behind I know what it costs, and I’m choosing the line [Chorus] Win or lose, take a stand Put your name where your heart can land Let the safe road disappear behind I’d rather lose awake than win by lying Win or lose, take a stand Hold your ground with both your hands When the verdict comes, I’ll meet its eyes No retreat, no alibis [Bridge] If the door stays closed, I’ll build a way through If the room turns cold, I’ll remember what’s true No crown, no promise, no guarantee Just one clear choice that belongs to me [Final Chorus] Win or lose, take a stand Put your name where your heart can land Let the safe road disappear behind I’d rather lose awake than win by lying Win or lose, take a stand Hold your ground with both your hands When the verdict comes, I’ll meet its eyes No retreat, no alibis [Outro] No retreat No alibis Win or lose I’m still alive
