Don't Stop Lyrics

Like a shotgun in a fist fight
Like a murder in the daylight
I'm the poison in the lead pipes
Open me up and watch the dogs fight
Dogs fight
My angel's in a headlock
And I'm dropping bombs from the rooftops
I ain't waiting on the world to wake up
Oh, you never need luck when you don't stop
Don't stop

My New Year's resolution, yeah
To choke out my illusions, yeah
To cut trough the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging deep, we keep digging

We don't stop, we don't stop
Yeah, we don't stop
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging

The ball drops
Start ticking to a new clock
Get back up and take another shot
Oh, pour the hard liquor and get up, get up, oh yeah

My New Year's resolution, yeah
Is to choke out my illusions, yeah
And cut trough the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging deep, keep digging

We don't stop, we don't stop
Yeah, we don't stop
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Keep digging

I give the side eye to the soundbites pumping stock lies
Saying shit don't stink
Touch a hot nerve when I prefer to be think first
And turn down Jonestown drinks
Five senses and a brain to move me
Five ways that they can never use me
I got the fire, I got control
I got the fire, I got control

Five senses and a brain to move me (Control!)
Five senses and a brain to move me (Control!)
Five senses and a brain to move me (Control!)

My New Year's resolution, yeah
To choke out my illusions, yeah
To cut trough the confusion, yeah
Oh, keep on digging deep, we keep digging deep
We keep digging deep, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging
We keep digging, we keep digging

Yeah, we don't stop, we don't stop
Yeah, we don't stop
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Oh, keep on digging deep, keep digging deep
Oh, digging

I got the fire, I got the soul
I got the fire, I got the soul
I got the fire, I got the soul
I got the fire, I got the hahahayeah

Nothing More is a rock band from San Antonio, TX, USA. If there are two words that best describe Nothing More, they are innovation and evolution. There is no better example of this than Nothing More’s newly released fourth album (self titled) and the dynamic show they are building around it. They’ve set the highest bar possible for the album and vow to eclipse that, at every outing with the live show.

From their humble beginnings in Texas, Nothing More answered the call to serve in the militia of independent touring artists. Armed with the idea that it takes brains and balls to create your destiny in this world, these young men climbed aboard a vintage RV, salvaged from a field and set sail. Now, a few short years later and with three full-length albums and over 500 live shows under their belts, they have mastered the DIY philosophy in every imaginable way, all the while never forgetting to put their fans first.

"Before we had even started touring we knew that we wanted to do more than just play our songs. We wanted to entertain and really connect with people in a unique way.” – Jonny Hawkins

Nothing More don’t take the stage, they storm it, alternating between enormous rock anthems full of technical precision and four man percussion assaults that have more in common with the Blue Man Group than a rock show. There is nothing pedestrian about this band. Welded from discarded truck and motorcycle parts, singer Jonny Hawkins’ percussion platform serves as a de-facto drum kit for Hawkins to accentuate and expertly pound rhythms in tandem with world-class drummer Paul O’Brien. From the gut wrenching yet sonically distinct riffs of guitar virtuoso Mark Vollelunga, to the thundering yet melodic bass of Daniel Oliver, or Hawkins’ commanding presence and charismatic delivery of sing-along lyrics too impossible to ignore, Nothing More is a fierce, snarling juggernaut poised to take the world by storm. Nothing More’s “take no prisoners” approach holds anyone within sight or earshot hostage until the very last note.

With the newly released, self-titled album, Nothing More feels they have truly hit a zenith of creativity. This record is artistically landscaped and woven together poetically with vast, dynamic musicality; and at the same time brutally honest in its lyrics and poignant in its delivery. It speaks softly of the beauty of personal and outward forgiveness amidst heartbreak through the song “I’ll Be OK”, then takes you into the hell of being cheated on by graphically depicting scenes of infidelity in “Sex and Lies”.

“In a back room, on your backside, I’m backstabbed as you backslide” -- Sex and Lies

As the listener churns through the tracks, rather than being transported with some idealized form of escapism, they are transformed by experiencing reality through they eyes of Nothing More. Even when confronting the darkest of subjects, Nothing More never fails to remind us of the light within that can never be extinguished on one of the albums heaviest tracks, “Ballast”.

“This is the time that we let it go. These are the words that will take us home. Singing the song that’s inside us all. If we don’t open our eyes, we’re walking blind.” --Ballast
