Zero
Stunt Monkey Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
So inebriated
And my thinking wasn't quite right
And when I first met you
I knew I'd forget you
The furthest I saw was that night
Beer-colored vision
Had so much in common with you
What I could not see
Was that you were like me
Because you are a zero, too
Z... E...R... O...
Things don't add up tonight
âCause the answer that we got doesn't seem right
So I'll take away you
Because one more zero doesn't equal two
Now it's time to divide
âCause I can't see this equation multiplied
What remains is too small
âCause you and me are zero after all
Now a day later
I'm seeing much straighter
It looks like you're not right for me
Can we chalk it up to
Cheap liquor and cold brew
âCause it never was meant to be
Z... E...R... O...
I'm a zero
You're a zero
I'm a zero
You're a zero
I'm a zero
You're a zero
He's a zero
She's a zero
We're a zero
We're a zero, too
The song “Zero” by Stunt Monkey is a rock song that explores the theme of a failed relationship that was formed because the two parties involved were not in their right senses. The song is about a subject who was very drunk and met someone just like him, who turned out not to be the right person for him. The singer of the song is so drunk that he couldn't really see clearly and therefore mistook the person he met for his soulmate. However, the next day when he is sober and feeling clearer, he realizes his mistake and that the relationship is not meant to be.
The first verse of the song describes the singer's state of mind when he met the other party; he was so drunk that his thinking was clouded. He met someone who seemed to have a lot in common with him, but he never realized that the other party was just like him, a zero. The chorus of the song repeats the word “zero” and the spelling, emphasizing that both parties in the relationship are zeros. The second verse is the singer seeing life from a clearer perspective, and he realizes that the person they met is not right for him.
In conclusion, the song's message focuses on the idea of using clearer thinking and not just seeing the surface. It offers a commentary on how people can make bad decisions based on their emotional state or physical condition, and how it's important to take the time to see things from all sides.
