Tenth Avenue North's song "Losing" is a heartfelt call to reconciliation and forgiveness. The lyrics address the pain of holding onto resentment and the destructive cycle of retaliation, contrasting the old way of "eye for eye" with the deeper truth of grace. The song encourages listeners to let go of bitterness, which it describes as a prison, and to lay down their weapons of anger. It emphasizes that while it hurts to release grudges, there is freedom in doing so. The message is rooted in Christian teaching on forgiveness and the healing that comes from grace.
Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
Our hearts get trampled in the dust
Someone should pay
Someone should pay for that
We're making enemies of us
I'm not OK
I'm not OK with that
It hurts to let it go
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
Don't let that resentment
Keep you locked up and bound
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
Come on yeah and reconcile
Reconcile
Eye for eye a tooth for tooth
That's just the way the old story goes
But maybe grace is deeper truth
The only world from where healing flows
It hurts to let it go
There's a freedom only heaven knows
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
Don't let that resentment
Keep you locked up and bound
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
All that resentment, come lay your weapons down
Come on yeah and reconcile
I know you're only trying to protect yourself
But all that bitterness becomes your prison cell
I know you're only trying to protect yourself
But all that bitterness becomes your prison cell
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
Don't let that resentment
Keep you locked up and bound
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
All that resentment, come lay your weapons down
Come on yeah
Come on yeah
Come on yeah and reconcile
