[Verse 1]
Am I better off dead?
Am I better off a quitter?

They say I'm better off now
Then 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
But 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 your mind turn it all around


I now that I'm drunk but I say the words
and she'll listen this even though they slurred

I'll dial her number and confess 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 I'm with her 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


[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 your mind turn it all around


And I now that I'm drunk but I say the words
If she'll listen this time even though there slurred
I'll dial her number and confess 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

Then 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 your mind turn it all around

And I now that I'm drunk but I say the words

If she'll listen this time even though they're slurred
I'll dial her number and confess 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]
