You Can't Win
Embrace Life's Challenges: Discovering the Wisdom in 'You Can't Win'
Lyrics
Don’t go falling apart
Cautioning against falling apart emotionally or mentally.
Don’t go giving it up
Advising against giving up or quitting.
Yeah you’ve got so much more to give
Encouraging the realization of untapped potential or abilities.
Don’t go hiding away
Warning against withdrawing or isolating oneself.
You got so much to say
Stating that there are things to express or communicate.
Yeah you’ve gotta give it out one day
Emphasizing the importance of sharing or expressing oneself eventually.
Everybody’s got a say
Noting that everyone has an opinion or perspective.
Everybody walks their separate ways
Highlighting the divergence of paths that individuals take.
And maybe you’ll find it easier one day
Suggesting that it might become easier at some point in the future.
You remember what Harry said
Recalling advice given by Harry.
You gotta be in it to win it
Stressing the importance of participation to succeed.
You gotta find out your own way
Encouraging finding one's own path or method.
Everyone goes their separate ways
Noting the divergence of paths individuals take.
And there’s no point in pointing the blame
Indicating the futility of assigning blame in such situations.
Cause you can’t love if you don’t fall
Stating that experiencing love requires taking the risk of falling for someone.
And you won’t win if you don’t play
Implying that success necessitates active participation or engagement.
And you won’t fall if you don’t love
Highlighting the correlation between vulnerability and the chance of failure.
And you can’t lose if you don’t play
Emphasizing that abstaining from participation ensures avoiding both loss and victory.
I got no doubt it’s been pretty tough
Acknowledging the acknowledged difficulties faced.
But maybe lady it’ll get easier one of these days
Expressing hope that things may improve in the future.
So don’t go drinking it all away
Advising against excessive drinking as an escape.
How come snares are always following me
Expressing a feeling of being constantly pursued or troubled.
How come the sun ain’t beating down
Questioning the absence of positivity or luck.
Show me some of that love today
Requesting affection or love in the present.
Everyone goes their separate ways
Reiterating the divergence of paths individuals take.
And there’s no point in pointing the blame
Reinforcing the idea that assigning blame is pointless.
Cause you can’t love if you don’t fall
Reiterating the necessity of vulnerability for love.
And you can’t win if you don’t lose
Highlighting that winning requires experiencing losses.
Well you can’t love if you don’t fall
Emphasizing the importance of vulnerability in love.
And you can’t lose if you don’t play
Stating that avoiding participation ensures avoiding both loss and success.
Well you won’t love if you don’t fall
Emphasizing that not falling in love avoids the experience altogether.
And you won’t know if you don’t play
Highlighting that understanding requires active involvement or engagement.
And you can’t win if you don’t lose
Stating that winning necessitates experiencing losses.
