English

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

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

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

Spanish (Latin America) lyrics	Translation
Yo no sé qué me ha sucedido Me culpan de hacer algo que no cometí ¿En qué me equivoqué?, ¿Quién me puede decir? Me siento solo y sin dirección	I don't know what happened to me They blame me for something I didn't do What did I do wrong? Who can tell me? I feel alone and lost
Ya no entiendo que es lo que quieren de mí Pues no me aceptan tal como soy Antes era el simio al que todos querían Un héroe Y hoy ya no me quieren Ya no soy un héroe	I no longer understand what they want from me They don't accept me as I am I used to be the ape everyone loved A hero And today they don't love me anymore I'm no longer a hero
Y eso me duele Ya no soy un héroe Y eso me duele	And that hurts me I'm no longer a hero And that hurts me

Spanish (Spain) lyrics	Translation
No sé qué es lo que me está pasando Me están culpando de algo que no hice yo ¿Quién puede decirme que es lo que he hecho mal? Me siento solo al borde del caos	I don't know what's happening to me They're blaming me for something I didn't do Who can tell me what I've done wrong? I feel alone on the edge of chaos
No puedo saber qué es lo que esperan de mí Ni siquiera sé lo que hacer Aquel fuego interior ya no arde me llaman cobarde No soy más que un cero Y me desespero	I can't know what they expect of me I don't even know what to do That inner fire no longer burns They call me a coward I'm nothing but a zero And I despair
No soy más que un cero Y me desespero Y me desespero	I am nothing but a zero And I despair And I despair
