Below, you will find the lyrics for Nothing by The Script.
Verse 1
Am i better off dead? am i better off a quitter?
They say i'm better off now than i ever was with her
As they take me to my local down the street
I'm smiling but i'm dying trying not to drag my feet
They say a few drinks will help me to forget her
But after one too many, i know that i'm never
Only they can't see where this is gonna end
They all think i'm crazy but to me it's perfect sense
Chorus 1
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'cause i'm shouting your name all over the town
I'm swearing if i go there now
I can change her mind, turn it all around
And i know that i'm drunk but i'll say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So i dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing
Verse 2
So i stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if i faced her face, that she'll come to her senses
Every drunk step i take leads me to her door
If she sees how much i'm hurting, she'll take me back for sure
Chorus 2
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'cause i'm shouting your name all over the town
I'm swearing if i go there now
I can change her mind, turn it all around
And i know that i'm drunk but i'll say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So i dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing
She said nothing
I wanted words but all i heard was nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
I wanted words but all i heard was nothing
Bridge
Sometimes love's intoxicating
You're coming down, your hands are shaking
When you realize there's no one waiting
Am i better off dead? am i better off a quitter?
They say i'm better off now than i ever was with her
Chorus 3
And my mates are all there trying to calm me down
'cause i'm shouting your name all over the town
I'm swearing if i go there now
I can change her mind, turn it all around
And i know that i'm drunk but i'll say the words
And she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
So i dialed her number and confessed to her
I'm still in love but all i heard was nothing
She said nothing
I wanted words but all i heard was nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
I wanted words but all i heard was nothing
I got nothing
I got nothing
