English[edit]

I don't know what's happenin' to me
I'm gettin' all the blame for things I didn't do
Can anybody tell me just what I did wrong?
I'm all alone and I'm so confused

I don't know what everyone wants me to be
I only know just how to be me
Once I was the ape of the hour
They think I'm a coward
An absolute zero
I'm nobody's hero

An absolute zero
I'm nobody's hero
I'm nobody's hero

French[edit]

French lyrics Translation

Je voudrais comprendre ce qui se passe
On m'accuse de choses que je n'ai pourtant pas faites
Quelqu'un peut-il me dire ce que j'ai fait de mal ?
Ils m'ont tous rejeté, je suis seul

I'd like to understand what's going on
I'm being accused of things I haven't done
Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong?
They've all rejected me, I'm alone

Je voudrais savoir ce qu'on attend de moi
Tout ce que je sais, c'est être moi-même
Avant, j'étais leur idole
Maintenant, je suis un lâche
Je suis un vrai zéro
Le héros de personne

I'd like to know what's expected of me
All I know is to be myself
I used to be their idol
Now, I'm a coward
I'm a real zero
Nobody's hero

Un vrai zéro pointé
Un héros de papier
Le héros de personne

A real zero
A paper hero
Nobody's hero

Brazilian Portuguese[edit]

Brazilian Portuguese lyrics Translation

Eu não sei o que há comigo
Levando a culpa por coisas que eu não fiz
Ninguém quer me dizer o que eu fiz de errado?
Estou sozinho e muito infeliz

I don't know what's the matter with me
Being blamed for things I haven't done
Does nobody want to tell me what I've done wrong?
I'm alone and very unhappy

O que querem que eu seja? Nem sei pra onde vou
Eu só sei ser aquilo que eu sou
Fui tão grande
Dizem que hoje eu sou um covarde
O mundo se vira
Herói de mentira

What do they want me to be? I don't even know where to go
I only know to be what I am
Once I was so big
They say today I am a coward
The world can fend for itself
Pretend hero

O mundo se vira
Herói de mentira
Herói de mentira

The world can fend for itself
Pretend hero
Pretend hero
