"No Hard Feelings"

"No Hard Feelings"


An establishment, a foundation of trust, compatible unity
In the beginning it was all in fun, no responsibilities (None)

But it's no longer an issue, a friendship or trust
It's a decision of business for the future where goals are a must

There's no hard feelings, it's nothing personal, it's just what's best for us
In time your resentment will fade away and inside your heart you'll regain trust

We're not your enemy, what happened had to be
No one's to blame, it had to be that way

Were you dedicated and did you do what's best for the band?
Did you have what it takes? Make no mistakes?

What happened to our friendship, is it better for the band?
It never should have happened, don't you understand?
I didn't want to hurt you, there was no cruel intent
But when something goes to change, nothing's permanent
I sympathize with you and the alienation you feel
But the pain goes both ways, all wounds will heal
Now the pain is over and resentment is here
Can you see a way clear? Will you still be my friend?

Plus no one is to blame

The final solution is not the answer
I loved, he left you pride for pain
If I had been the one, I'd control my pride
I'd try to take this all in stride

There's no hard feelings, it's nothing personal, it's just what's best for us
In time your resentment will fade away and inside your heart
You will regain trust

And you will come to see happened had to be
No one's to blame, it had to be that way

"No Little Pill"

"No Little Pill"


I thought the west was won but
Seems like I had just begun to lose all
Ideals I once knew mountains and
Transmutation anxious anticipation
These sodden skiey and burning views
Short goals and grim objectives soon
Rising seas will take your homes
Benchmarks and sure salvation creation
And temptation black lungs sing vituous
Hate songs antibiotics and disinfectants
Germaphobes for stronger infection
Cowboys on steroids love tabloids
Expecting endless surplus soon they'll
Have nothing left to waste racing from
Dogma to distrust unsure why they all
Hate us

Think about it the world defines you
Think about it you should be depressed
And no little pill will make any difference

People for atto seconds bow to the
Idiocracy media spun reality nightmares
Comes every shut-eye still they won't
See what they become still they won't
See what they have done power mad
Mass corruption blood money changes
Everyone wake each day in panic
And distrust knowing that they all hate us

Think about it the world describes you
Think about it you should be anxious
And no little pill will make any difference

"No One"

"No One"


Labors of commitment
Blood of his arms
A growing sense of duty
But in his song he's screaming out
Insuficient - he just falls further
Behind Principles, purpose, tradition, time
Weigh heavy on this guilty
Mind Wits astray
Blind in rage, awar he'll wage on grieving
Another no one hanging from the ceiling
Because only the extreme makes an impression
When drowning in the mainstream
One at the mercy of another's faith finally answers to no one in his fall from grace
They say they love him but how could they ever
Miles above him they ask for repent
It doesn't matter what you want from me
Don't think there's worth in my apology
Because people never really change
You and I will always be the same and it's a problem that we can't mend
Because it happened once it will happen again
Because they plant their seeds of condition
Until we have no choice, we lose conviction wits astray
Blind in rage a war he'll wage on grieving
Another no one blows his head off
Because only the extreme makes an impression
When drowning in the mainstream no one

"No One Like You"
(originally by Scorpions)

"No One Like You"
(originally by Scorpions)



Girl, it's been a long time that we've been apart
Much too long for a man that needs love
I miss you since I've been away

Babe, it wasn't easy to leave you alone
It's been harder now that I'm gone
If I had a choice I would stay

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you (yeah, it's killer)
I imagine the things we do
I just wanna be loved by you (word up)
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do (kick it)
I just wanna be loved by you

Girl, there are really no words strong enough
I've been wanting you're 12 year old love
I don't want my feelings restrained

Ooh babe, I just need you like never before
I've been watching you since you were four
I'll take all my sorrows away.
Killer pussy.

I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you (it's all good)
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you

There's no one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you
I just wait for the nights with you (kick it)
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you (it's all good)
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you
No one like you
I can't wait for the nights with you
I imagine the things we'd do
I just wanna be loved by you

"Noble End"

"Noble End"


He grew up with nothing
He lived and died poor a father of four
He left his family temporarily
for a future based on words of chicanery
They said join the Army Join the Navy
He joined the Marines and his children were proud
but exaltation was exhausted and patronage died
when this expendable number left his family of five

Imposture
and all that man wanted was to provide
a better existence for his kids and wife
An investment that cost him his life
A family of ethics has...

A fatality of war can't be noble enough
to justify the loss of life so young
Continental security Atonement aaah
there's no such thing
There was no hero in the end
Only letters of resent, remorse, regret
Bitter resent

Imposture
and all those boys wanted was to be alive
a return of existence yet so many died
and those who returned were alone
with nothing awaiting at home

Again the headlines read
"A Noble Soldier Finds A Noble Ending"
They are the ones who can be done without
Expendable numbers forgotten no doubt
A family of ethics has died!

"Obsolete Absolute"

"Obsolete Absolute"


"It is inevitable, he becomes OBSOLETE because the things that define him
become OBSOLETE. These things are part of who he is and now they are
irrelevant: TYPEWRITERS, CURSIVE HANDWRITING, DICTIONARIES,
ENCYCLOPEDIAS, LANDLINES, OPERATORS, PAYPHONES, MAIL,
CONVERSATION, TOUCH, SYMPATHY, EMPATHY, LOVE, PRIVACY..."

Please to meet you in the grey
Swinging slowly in the hang
All together on the beat
New machines are coming primed
Seasons change and combine
Starving bees on dying vines
Revelations in your mind
Document on fire

(OBSOLETE) Absolutely
(ABSOLUTE) Obsolete Yeah!
Hanging by my testimony I expire
All I've known
OBSOLETE ABSOLUTE

Run...
Running, running, fall behind
Faster, faster, borrowed time
Heritage has lost its mind
We are undefined

(OBSOLETE) Absolutely
(ABSOLUTE) Obsolete Yeah!
Hanging on outworn nostalgia antiquated
All we've known
OBSOLETE, ABSOLUTE

Swinging men on the tree
Weighted bags of debris (Echoes of grey)
Their survival contingent on their empathy
They aren't anything but prey

"...TRADITION, CONVENTION, LINEAGE, MORALITY, COMPASSION, EYE CONTACT, HISTORY, FAMILY."

We aren't anything but prey
All our tools taken away
All the words we used to say
Salutations, courtesies
Mamma, Poppa, grazie

Mamma, Poppa save me

(OBSOLETE) Absolutely
(ABSOLUTE) Obsolete Yeah!
Hanging on our testimonies we expire
All we really know
We're not anything but prey
OBSOLETE, ABSOLUTE, OBSOLETE, ABSOLUTE

"Of Mind And Matter"

"Of Mind And Matter"


They spoke bravely
It opened our eyes
We swallowed their pride
A new era
So where is the new advise?
It seems the older methods no longer suffice
The very oldest of thoughts
Cast into the mold of these new times

Vindictive, he raises his fist
This animal is instinctive
Every man desires peace
But in dread of war,
Still harms increase
Perpetual with only one end
When that savage nature destroys them
All is written
All is forgiven
All is lived again
Holding on again

After all, this worthless progress
Is progress made for change
After all these vain advances
Does that concerned animal value his life?
Cornered, cornered
Human nature alive

And we carry on within the score

"Off The Wagon"

"Off The Wagon"


No more waiting on them
As you sink inside your room
Your environment changed
It changes your perspective too
There's no gain in failure
As you succeed at being theirs

Take a liberation
Take a cheap ride to the moon
Liberate yourself from them

You haven't changed
You've just grown out of them
And you saw what they can't see
In truth, it took you far away from them

And now it chews your stomach
As you bleed
An artist would
She will stand beside you, no doubt
But you'd think by now you'd figure her out

Take a step to Venus
As the truth stands in the way
She's still here to remind you

They never cared
They've just grown out of it
As they all can plainly see
In truth, you've pushed them far away from you

Away from you

"One More Song"

"One More Song"


It's been awhile,
But somewhere in each day I recall
That crooked smile,
Last few years to calculate
All the ways I could have changed your fate
And my role forever know the toll of still blood

One more song
One more visit to the cell where I belong
A hundred stories hanging on
Fifteen songs that hanging from each line
Goodnight

I recall the last song
And I can't handle Brooklyn anymore
But always long for one more sunrise

Knowing you are safe at home
I picture life but then the vision jumps away
Like the touch of death could see my name
My cell, forever know the devil in details

A wrinkled page, scribbled word
A melody gone will never be heard
This one's writing itself
God help, what god?
One song, my aeroplane
Forever over the sea

Goodbye

I can't write this sad song long,
And they won't share the first line anymore
But always long for one more song
Tony, we'll always long for one more song
Always long for one more

"One Thing To Live"

"One Thing To Live"


A look in your eyes what can I say,
You left us here and it's a shame,
I would like to have helped,
To begin again,
But thankful for such potential,
You decided you fate,
One thing to live...

A look at you now what's in a name,
You left them there, it was a shame,
They would like to have helped,
Again to begin,
But potential was yours never ours,
Before you chose your fate,
Before you asked them all to wait,
Left standing there to watch you playing with your matches,
One good burn deserves another two,
But one thing to live is one thing to live,
Selfish fool nobody loves you,
Self resent how can they trust you,
Walk around with like a burned out match,
It will never catch,
Why should you die with dignity,
You lived in a shame as you ask them all to wait,
Left standing here to watch you lying in your ashes,
One good burn deserves another two,
One thing to live is one thing to live.
