I suck at this but here I GO!
Just because I'm losing
Doesn't mean I'm lost
Doesn't mean I'll stop
Doesn't mean I would cross
Just because I'm hurting
Doesn't mean I'm hurt
Doesn't mean I didn't get
What I deserved
No better and no worse
I just got lost
Every river that I tried to cross
Every door I ever tried was locked
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
You might be a big fish
In a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
And you'll be lost
Every river that you tried to cross
Every gun you ever held went off
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting until the firing stopped
Ohhh and I'm...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
(amazing piano solo)
Ohhh and I...
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off
Ohhh and I..
Just waiting 'til the shine wears off

I think it's "Oooh and I'm/just waiting 'til the shine wears off"
and also
"No better and no worse" and "You might be a big fish/In a little pond"
Thanks for doing all that though :D

No better and no worse, like Mimixxx said, as well as "shine wears off"
You might *be* a big fish
*In* a little pond
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause a lonely [...]
A bigger one
Every gun you ever held went off (added 'ever')
EDIT: Pretty much got beaten to every one of those =[ oh well, i tried
I wonder what he says after "lonely"

Few more.
Doesn't mean I won't cross -> I can't hear him say "won't". I'm pretty sure he says "will", even though that seems to make less sense
(well, depends on what kind of bridge it is and whether crossing it would be a good thing or not)
"No better and no worst" -> "No better and no worse" (typo, I assume)
"You might me be a big fish" -> "You might be a big fish" (again, small typo)
"Doesn't mean you want" -> I still hear "Doesn't mean you've won" - in fact, this makes more sense meaning-wise (I don't wanna type the whole meaning out now, too lazy)

Nope, you got a good 90% right. I wouldn't get 90% right, I suck at starting to decipher song lyrics. But once someone else gets started, it's easy to get some corrections in. We haven't got 100% yet.
A few things I'm uncertain about:
"'Cause a lonely cause" -> cause isn't right, it sounds like something that rhymes on "won" - ... but I can't think of any words that would fit after lonely. Lonely one? Meh. Besides, he sayd something like "con" or "gon" or whatever... Chris, you need to pronounce things more clearly :P
"Just waiting until the firing stops" -> I can't hear the "s" in stops. I swear he says "stop", but that's not proper grammar, is it, Chris? Tsk tsk.

check it out now ===> I've made some corrections!
con instead of cause
stopped instead of stops
would instead of will

Maybe it's:
Doesn't mean you've won
'Cause along may come
A bigger one
It makes more sense?
Either way, I love this song.

WTF, where did the lyrics come from? Did this song leak or something?
Jpw48

Yep :P
Its the B-Side to the german VH single
its not the album version (Lost!), but the accoustic version (Lost?)
Jenjie
09-05-2008, 10:36 PM
and I'm most definitely Lost. I thought the tv programme was bad for mashing my brain...
Thanks for the lyrics, and it's a great song, but it's funny, I'm not quite as excited by this as I have been VLV and VH. I think it's definitely the right time for this new stuff.

Is there a place I can download it from?

When searching for multimedia to download a good place to start would be the multimedia section =)

^it makes more sense
When I translated the song that was the line I thought didn't sound right.

I just got lost
Every river that I've tried to cross
I think this is a possible alteration.
My favourite song so far.

Sorry.
But this version we have of just Chris singing with piano is just an 'acoustic' version of the song - not the big version we're yet to hear on the album?
Is that correct?
And is the difference:
Lost? - Bside
Lost! - Album
Beautiful song. I love the slight echo/reverb on Chris' voice. Especially at the beginning when he sings 'doesn't mean I'm lost'.

I've been listening to the song a lot and the verse 'no better and no worse' to me sounds like 'and the better and the worse'. Thoughts? Does it make more sense or is it just me?
God this song is good!:smug:
