No is an answer

(Howard Aronson)

This is a weird lyric I'm not even sure the real meaning of it. I just know that for so many years I turned to drugs to find peace which is an oxymoron. I never took the word no for an answer in just about everything I did. I only wanted to hear yes, or thought that I could do anything. I realized today that no is an answer, and some things are just out of my reach. I definitely realize today that drugs was not the answer and I should have said no.

If there's one thing I know
It's taken years
Of pain and tears
To find out who I am

I ran and ran
And made myself numb
turning to drugs
Hoping peace would come

I was a fool
To think that was a way out
Now I've been scarred
I never knew what peace was about

There were times when I woke up
And came back to Earth
But I still had that empty feeling
Like I dug a hole in the dirt

I sat around for so long
Asking God why
I never got an answer
No matter how much I cried

I was a fool
To think that was a way out
Now I've been scarred
I never knew what peace was about

No is an answer
I still have a chance here
No is an answer
I still have a chance here

If there's one thing I know
It's taken years
Of pain and tears
To find out who I am

One good thing

By Howard Aronson

This is a lyric about two people in a relationship where one is so critical of the other that it's absolutely ruining the relationship. The person asks can't you just say one good thing about me? All they have here is the negative, constant criticism, and being put down. It's gotten to the point where the other person can't take it anymore and the relationship is in jeopardy.

Nothing will be okay

By Howard Aronson

This is a fictional Rock lyric about a relationship that has grown to the point where the person can't take it anymore. They've been tormented by this relationship so much that they have thoughts of killing the other person if they stay with them one more day. I know I've been in relationships where it's really torn my soul out but I don't think I've ever been one where I was so angry that I thought I couldn't stay with the person one more day or I'd kill them, but I'm sure it's probably happened many times. Personally I think this makes for a great Rock song, it's an angry lyric, and maybe I was in an angry mood when I wrote it.

Dreams in my head

By Howard Aronson

This lyric is about dreams. Some seems so realistic that they must be based on something that's close to me. Others seem distant, and more like a lie. I really don't know what a lot of these dreams mean and I can't live forever so I wish I'd be able to find out now. Are these dreams something that's telling me what's in store for me, or what I missed, I really don't know but all I know is I have lots of dreams in my head when I sleep, and when I awake I just wonder what it all means.

Will you be the one

By Howard Aronson

This is a love song of sorts, about a woman that I love very much but don't know if she loves me. I asked the question do you love me anymore and will you be the one for me. We've had a long relationship, and maybe our love has grown old, and we just meant to be two ships passing in the night. But I can't help but Wonder if there's something I can do to make things right or to bring back that passion that we once had. My question is will you be the one?

Waiting on the Other Side

By Melanie Thompson

The other side is what? Heaven? Hell? Neither? Are all the sins we commit forgiven? I think so. I hope so. This is what the other side looks like to me. You may end up in a beautiful place (Heaven), but you will spend eternity in that beautiful place correcting all the wrong you did as a human being (Hell). So, for me, the other side is both. The more wrongs we right now, in human form, the less time we spend on the other side doing it.
