It really hurts when there
are winners and losers.
تشعر بالألم حقاً عندما يكون هناك
رابح وخاسر
Ist schon ein blödes Gefühl,
wenn man plötzlich als Verlierer dasteht.
Duele cuando hay ganadores y perdedores.
Duele cuando hay ganadores y perdedores.
Ça fait mal quand il y a
des gagnants et des perdants.
Come pensavo, è brutto 
quando ci sono vincitori e vinti.
É um baque grande quando
há vencedores e perdedores.
Всё-таки тяжело, когда есть
победители и проигравшие.
