No Tomorrow
Blood for Blood Lyrics

The song "No Tomorrow" by Blood for Blood starts with the excitement of the night, and the subsequent repetition of the phrase "Here we go, blood for blood." The phrase itself speaks to the notion of reciprocity, a twisted concept of revenge where equal measures of violence are taken against one another. It's almost as if the band is saying that they recognize the harsh world we live in and they're not just going to sit back and take it but instead they'll fight back, to the death if necessary. The repetition of the phrase creates an intensity that builds with each iteration, symbolizing the growing feeling of anger.

The lyrics turn inward as the vocalist urges the listener to consider the world. He asks if they've taken a look around and wonder why things are the way they are. The question is followed up with the recognition that there are no answers to be found, and so we seek out the comfort of those close to us, only to find that they don't have any answers either. The sense of hopelessness and desperation is palpable throughout this section of the song.

However, despite all the negativity, the chorus speaks of a sense of "alrightness." It's a self-contained moment of joy before things inevitably turn back to the bleak reality of the world. It's a reminder to seize the good moments when they come, because they may not last long in a world like this. Ultimately, "No Tomorrow" is a song that's reflective of the violence and uncertainty of the world we live in, acknowledging the pain and the problems but ending on a note of defiant celebration.
