(Zero, zero, zero, zero)
Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As the world falls open wide
Like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
My lost awakening
I've found the same as life before
When after me another lonely wounded solider falls
Like lights fantastic
That fall upon my shoulder, fall
Don't fall upon my shoulder, fall
She gave me a call
So I gave her a smile
I asked for her love
What I should dial?
She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
Please excuse me
I meant no harm in being born
As the world falls open wide
And like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
She gave me a call
So I gave her a smile
I asked her for love,
What should I dial?
She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
I meant no harm in being born
As the world falls open wide
Like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
I've found the same as life before
When after me another lonely wounded solider falls
Like lights fantastic
That fall upon my shoulder, fall
Don't fall upon my shoulder, fall
So I gave her a smile
I asked for her love
What I should dial?
She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
I meant no harm in being born
As the world falls open wide
And like a wounded solider falls
Breaks backs in silence
Don't fall around me this time
Don't fall around me this time
So I gave her a smile
I asked her for love,
What should I dial?
She said 'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'
'Zero, zero, zero, zero, zero'

I really loved this band growing up, especially this album, it was the second CD I'd ever owned, the first being There is Nothing Left to Lose by Foo Fighters, but to sum my thoughts, amazing song. Although I'm sure my interpretation is wrong as I see a lot on this site (would it hurt anyone to look up the actual meaning as interpreted by the artists?), I'd assume that it's about a guy who feels like a loser after being toyed with ("Please excuse me for being born" implies sarcasm and irritation) by a woman who wouldn't give him a 'real number to her love' ("I asked for her love, What should I dieal? She said 'Zero, zero....zero'"). But that's just ol' DANGER's assumption. What do any of you think?
