No Use For A Name - The Feel Good Song Of The Year Lyrics






I never thought the day would come when I
Would be the poison in the pen I use to write
You said you were alone in somewhat of a nervous tone
I guess it was the blank look on your face that was easy to replace

So then I went and drank myself into an idiot all through the night
Recounting all my paranoid and selfish thoughts but I was right

I made a space for you inside my soul
And let my feelings kill the part that I control
So part of you was me, neglectful maybe cold it seemed
Despite having the wounds we both imbibe, the scars are
Somewhere we can't hide

I then stayed up for two more years just thinking of the sacrifice you made
Indifferent to the reason so apparent in the pain
I polished off another drink and taught myself to numb and drift away
For one more night so I could justify the day

So now I entertain the thought of going on all alone
But you are all the life I've ever known

I swear one day I'll get it back something that is already dead and gone
Again i see the trumpet player looking for his song
Don't worry I won't follow you, that part of me is learning to let got
What was a space is like a cancer in my soul

    I just want to say thanks for getting me through my younger days. No Use seemed to always be there, in my car or in my garage. I was listening to everything closely relating to the lyrics. No Use for a fucking Name was my favorite band and always enjoyed there live performances, most energetic and awesome time of my life. Thanks NUFAN for being such a huge part in my life, for that you have a life long fan. Thanks Tony for the greatest lyrics ever put on paper. It's been just shy of 5 yrs since your passing and it still don't seem real that your gone. You will be missed. This world is a lesser place without you. Thanks!
