So determined not to fuck up
Run of the mill in my bad luck
Copacetic in the early stage
But slow and steady never won the race

How it all went wrong
I don't know
Thought the time was right
To let it show
I got a less than zero
Response in return
Now with nero's fire
I watch it burn

So determined to win her love
Run of the mill in my bad luck
Now I see on her face this expression of pain
I don't know what I've done, I can't live this way

How it all went wrong
I don't know
Thought the time was right
To let it show
I got a less than zero
Response in return
Now with nero's fire
I watch it burn

No eiffel towers
No french maids
Mona lisa's smile
Or Jim Morrison's grave
I lit the match
And mixed the gasoline
Now with nero's fire
I watch this city gleam

How it all went wrong
I don't know
Thought the time was right
To let it show
I got a less than zero
Response in return
Now with nero's fire
I watch it burn

I was so determined
To win her love
Thought the rest of our life
Together would be enough
I got a less than zero
Response in return
Now with nero's fire
I watch it all burn

You know, I've always been curious where songwriters get their inspiration from, especially when they include references to Classical Greece and Rome.
