Please help

I really want to know the name/artist of a song but cant really describe it well!!
It has an old style punk sound, but Im pretty sure its a newish band. Out maybe a few months ago.
The only lyric is 'nothing to .....' which is repeated with various endings to the line.
I will be amazed, and very grateful, if anybody knows what I am on about!

Punk sound, newish band, 2006 track ...maybe this is it.

'Nothing To Lose' by Billy Talent

Need more friends with wings
All the angels I know
Put concrete in my veins
I�d always walk home alone
So I became lifeless
Just like my telephone

There�s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There�s nothing to gain
But the days don�t seem to change

Never played truth or dare
I�d have to check my mirror
To see if I�m still here
My parents had no clue
That I ate all my lunches
Alone in the bathroom

There�s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There�s nothing to gain
But the days don�t seem to change
There�s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain
There�s nothing to gain
And I can�t fight the pain

Teachers said "it's just a phase"
When I grow up my children
Will probably do the same
Kids just love to tease
Who'd know it put me underground at age seventeen
At seventeen

There�s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There�s nothing to gain
But the days don�t seem to change
There�s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain
There�s nothing to gain
And I can�t fight the pain
There�s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There�s nothing to gain
But the days don�t seem to change
There�s nothing to lose
My notebook will explain

There�s nothing to lose
When no one knows your name
There�s nothing to gain
And I just died today

[naz_nomad]

well ... amazed, grateful ...or both?

[alijangra]

Well Im grateful for the effort Naz, but it's not what Im looking for. Thanks anyway!

[naz_nomad]

damn ...oh, well ... back to the drawing board


any more clues?

[alijangra]

It's a bit faster than that tune!? Sorry I know its not much to go on!

[TheScopies]

It's "Freakin' Out" by ex-Blur guitarist Graham Coxon from the "Happiness In Magazines" album. Coincidentally, there's a rather splendid cover version on The Scopies debut release "Shock Treatment", available for just �2 + P&P from Scopies.co.uk.

Verse 1

Nothing to see, nothing to hear
Nothing to be, nothing to fear
Nothing to prove, nothing to say
Nothing to lose, nothing to gain
Nothing to feel, nothing to hate
Nothing is real, it's all too late.
What do you do when nothing's wrong?
Ain't got a clue, ain't got no song

Bridge

Chorus
======
Yeah I'm foaming at the mouth
Yeah I'm mad without a doubt
Coz I'm really freakin' out!
And I'm going out of my mind
TV got me going blind
And I'm really freakin' out!


Verse 2

Hey man, you think you got it made
Groovin' your stink on your Fender bass
Got on your aviator shades
Yeah man you're looking really ace
So what the hell you doing here?
Filling the space between my ears
Why don't you all just disappear
The price on your friendship's way too dear

Chorus

Solo

Verse 3

Nothing to see, nothing to hear
Nothing to be, nothing to fear
Nothing to prove, nothing to say
Lala lala lala la lay

Chorus

[alijangra]

Yay TheScopies, I love you!!! Thank you ever so much :)

[TheScopies]

No problem. Have you bought the CD yet? ;-)

Cheers,

Rich Scopie.
