Zero
Oliver Smith feat. Natalie Holmes Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Won't you tell your mother?
'Cause I can be the cure
When I'm making you suffer
Won't you open up?
Won't you tell your mother?
'Cause I can be the cure
When you're suffering because of me
Can be your hero
Can be your hero
You say you love me
You say you want me back
But I can pretend to have what we lack
In your own words
I feel your empty soul
But I can be your hero
I can bring you back to zero
To zero
To zero
But I can be your hero
I can bring you back to zero
I'm so (...) being on my own
On my own, on my own
But I can be your hero
The lyrics of Oliver Smith Natalie Holmes's song "Zero" depict a conversation between two individuals where the singer is making a plea to the other person to open up and share their problems with her. The singer seems confident that she has the ability to cure the suffering of the other person, but only if they confide in her. The phrase "be your hero" is repeated several times, implying that the singer wants to be the one to rescue the other person from their troubles.
The lyrics also suggest that the other person has expressed feelings of love and a desire to reunite with the singer. However, the singer seems to be aware of the fact that there is some underlying issue between them that needs to be resolved. The singer observes that the other person's soul feels empty, but she is willing to elevate them and bring them back to "zero," which may signify a place of healing or starting over.

Lyrics:
Won't you open up?
Won't you tell your mother?
'Cause I can't be the cure
When I'm making you suffer
Won't you open up?
Won't you tell your mother?
'Cause I can't be the cure
When you're suffering 'cause of me
Can't be your hero
You say you love me
And you say you want me back
But I can't pretend to have what we lack
In your own words
I filled your empty soul
But I can't be your hero
I can't bring you back to zero
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh)
To zero
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh)
To zero
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh)
But I can't be your hero
I can't bring you back to zero
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh
I'm so good at being on my own
On my own, on my own
But I can't be your hero

It's been a long time since I've heard a deep synth trance track like this. It brings back some good memories of TATW days.
Keep up the great work Oliver!

Loving Olie's new songs, and I think they stand up well next to his older songs. He's definitely shown that he makes good clean vocal tracks in every release.
