Song of d Day (SOD): Nothing by The Script


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 see where this is gonna end
They all think I’m crazy but to me it’s perfect sense

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 your 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
Dial her number and confess to her
I’m still in love but all I heard was nothing
(Nothing, nothing …)

So I stumble there, along the railings and the fences
I know if I’m face to 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

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 your 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 (?)
Dial her number and confess 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 sometimes love is intoxicating
Oh 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

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 your 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
Dial her number and confess 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 …)
I got nothing, I got nothing

Song of d day(SOD): Not Over You



Dreams, that's where I have to go
to see your beautiful face anymore
I stare at a picture of you and listen to the radio
Hope, hope there's a conversation
where we both admit we had it good but
until then it's alienation, I know, that much is understood
And I realize


If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two 
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what they say, I'm not over you
Not over you


Damn, damn girl you do it well
And I thought you were innocent
You took this heart and put it through hell
But still you're magnificent 
I I'm a boomerang doesn't matter how you throw me
Turn around and I'm back in the game
Even better than the old me
But I'm not even close without you


If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two 
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what I say, I'm not over you


And if I had the chance to renew
You know there isn't a thing I wouldn't do
I could get back on the right track
But only if you'd be convinced
So until then


If you ask me how I'm doin I would say I'm doin just fine
I would lie and say that you're not on my mind
But I go out and I sit down at a table set for two 
and finally I'm forced to face the truth
No matter what I say, I'm not over you
Not over you
Not over you
Not over you
