The band dissolved between 2015 and 2018, partly due to creative differences and partly due to lead singer Delgado serving jail time for smuggling marijuana. In 2018, they started playing shows again, first only at the Sound And Fury and This Is Hardcore festivals, then moving on to full-blown tours again.
Their fourth full-length album, "Ronin", is scheduled to release in April 2020 via Pure Noise Records.
No Clue
Rotting Out Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They act so concerned when they only know my fucking name.
They analyze my shit like it means something to them,
but they don't know a thing about how I've lived or where I've been.
All my life people acted like they knew,
but I've come to learn that they don't have a fucking clue.
They wasted my time and couldn't look me in the eyes.
They were afraid of my truth so the fed me fucking lies.
They want to talk, but no one listens.
"I understand." No you don't.
So many lies, I'm sick and tired.
I'm tired.
Now they try and act like they know what I'm about.
They tell me that I need to talk,
that I got to let it out.
They say,
"Walter, your're so angry. You've got to let things go."
Well fuck them, and fuck you.
Hate is all I've ever known.
So, fuck every friend that felt obliged to listen but didn't give a shit.
Fuck my teachers for wasting my time and said I was acting out.
Fuck the social worker that got paid to feel sorry for me.
Fuck the church for filling my head with useless stories that never helped.
Fuck the cops for showing up late.
Fuck my parents for making me pay for their mistakes.
The lyrics to Rotting Out's song No Clue are a powerful statement about feeling misunderstood and unsupported by those around you. The singer in the song is frustrated with people who act like they know about his life and struggles, when in reality they have no clue. The lyrics express a deep sense of anger and resentment towards everyone who has let the singer down, including friends, teachers, social workers, and even parents. The singer is tired of being told to open up and talk about his feelings, when no one is actually listening or trying to understand him.
The lyrics also touch on the theme of truth and lies. The singer has been fed lies his whole life by people who are afraid of his truth, and he is tired of living in a world of deception. There is a sense of raw honesty in the way the lyrics are written, as the singer unapologetically calls out everyone who has let him down.
Overall, No Clue is a powerful song that speaks to anyone who has ever felt misunderstood or unheard. It is a reminder that sometimes, the people who are supposed to support us are the ones who let us down the most.
