Script, The - Nothing Lyrics






[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'll 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 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 (nothing, nothing, nothing)

[Verse 2]
So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if we're face to face then 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 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 (nothing, nothing)

She said nothing (nothing, nothing)
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing (nothing, nothing)
I got nothing (nothing, 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 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 (nothing, nothing)

She said nothing (nothing, nothing)
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing (nothing, nothing)
I got nothing (nothing, nothing)
Oh, I wanted words but all I heard was nothing
Oh, I got nothing (nothing, nothing, nothing)

I got nothing [x3]

    Don’t ever express your love to someone unless they feel the exact same way as you... I’ve been there before and it sucks was in the same position as him.. i had to realize i was going towards a dark path.. if i was going to keep trying and trying and still ended up with nothing!!! My family was there seeing me depressed hurt and drinking away.. then it hit me.. I started focusing on myself and loving myself more then ever before.,, im so fucking happy with my new girlfriend now.. she’s amazing and understood my past.. and accept me for who i am , i just hope that it will last because we all deserve to be loved and respected..

    I always find this song very majestic.

  28. A.... F....

    My Queen broke up 4 years into our relationship thanks to the pressure of her parents. I am 3 years younger & at that time I was wild. I felt this way the entire 2 years we were apart. I told the girl I was dating that if my Queen ever called I would leave & not to fall in love with me. The girl agreed b/c she thought that we would never reconcile. 2 years apart & I recieved the phone call I was waiting for & immediately left to be with my Queen. I returned to the gorls house to retrieve all my belongings & found them ALL burning in the pit behind her house. My Queen & I got married & have been together ever since. 20 years together now with 4 great kids. She is my everything

  29. D.... T....

    Mom: What are you watching
    Me: Nothing

    I dialled her number and confessed that i'm still in love but she actually said nothing :c

  63. k.... c....

    This song brings back a lot of memories. 💔Still the best song for me from The Script

  64. M.... N....

    This song is the reason for all the alcohol poisonings I've had since she left.

  65. L.... K....

    "I'm smiling but I'm dying...." I felt that

    L.... K....

    I felt that too

  66. K.... D....

    Lets be honest... 90% of us here are male....

    K.... D....

    King Descend Um, excuse me. I'm a female.

    K.... D....

    @Ahnya Christieson Love, i said 90%. not everyone~ and its nice to see other genders here

  67. T.... W....

    Why most of their lyrics are about heart breaks?! I use to wonder if his heart was broken ?! 😭

  68. C.... C....

    My dad listened to this song over and over when I was young. Right after my parents divorce my dad would listen to this on repeat. Makes me cry thinking about it and the memories of their divorce. Being the youngest of 7 older brothers. My father being the boss of the company. Working for my older brothers and dad being the youngest is hard. Nobody listens to me at work. I moved out at 18 now 24 with a daughter. Life can be tough. Dad has a new girlfriend driving brand new GMC Denalis while my mom has nothing to show after the divorce. She struggles ever since the divorce. I could go on my life is so weird.

  69. M.... T....

    They really special

    I'm on the verge of losing the love of my life and I could've prevented it. I'm flying off to London TMR to see if things can work out. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best I guess.

    They say I'm better off now

    I'm still in love but all I heard was nothing

    So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
