Nothing (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]

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

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]

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

Dialed her number and confessed to her

I'm still in love but all I heard

Was nothing

She said nothing

Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, I got nothing

Oh, I got nothing

Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Ohh, sometimes love's intoxicating

Ohh, 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]

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

Dialed her number and confessed to her

I'm still in love but all I heard

Was nothing

She said nothing

Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Oh, I got nothing

I got nothing

I wanted words but all I heard was nothing

Ohh I got nothing

I got nothing [x3]
