No Winners
Unveiling the Zero-Sum Game of Blame in 'No Winners'
Lyrics
You find no winners, no winners here
You won't find any winners in this situation.
No winners, no winners here
No winners are present here either.
They just throw the blame in a zero-sum game
People are just shifting blame in a zero-sum game, where one's gain is equivalent to another's loss.
Throw the blame in a zero-sum game
Reiterating the act of blaming within a zero-sum game.
But there's no winners, no winners here
Despite the actions taken, there are still no winners.
How many questions do you really have to ask
Reflecting on the number of questions one has to ask in this situation.
How many more do you have to take to task
How many challenges must one face before realizing the lack of winners?
To see theres' no winners, no winners here
Despite questioning and challenges, the outcome remains the same - no winners.
The center can't hold, everybody live in fear
Reference to the breakdown of order or stability, with everyone living in fear.
And there's no winners, no winners here
Reiterating the absence of winners amidst a fearful atmosphere.
And everybody wants the same things don't they
Everyone desires the same things.
Everybody wants the same things don't they
Repetition emphasizing the commonality of desires.
A little part to call their own
People seek a small part to claim as their own.
A little roof to call their home
Desire for a personal and secure space, a home.
And everybody wanna keep the children safe
Although everyone wants to protect children, there are still no winners.
but there's no winners, no winners here
Reiterating the absence of winners despite the shared desire for child safety.
The center can't hold, everybody live in fear
A repetition of the idea that the center cannot hold, and fear prevails.
And there's no winners, no winners here
Concluding with the statement that, once again, there are no winners.
