No Resolution
Seether Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Even though you preyed upon my mind
Been living a lie
Seems that every day it eats me
Yeah and there's no resolution
Yeah but it makes me think twice
Yeah but I need retribution
I'm breathing a sigh
In a passing away I'll take my time
I'm still getting high
I love the way it feeds me
Yeah and there's no resolution
Yeah but it makes me think twice
Yeah but I need retribution
You just don't get it that I'm the solution
You can't keep me down my friend
You can't keep me down my friend
I'm doing fine
Even though this hatred plagues my mind
I'm living a lie
But I love the way you need me
Yeah and there's no resolution
Yeah but it makes me think twice
Yeah but I need retribution
You don't get it but that I'm your pollution
Yeah but there's no resolution
Yeah but it makes me think twice
Yeah and I need retribution
You don't get it that I'm the solution now
The lyrics to Seether's No Resolution seem to express the internal struggle of someone who has been hurt by another person but still finds themselves drawn to them. The singer is in denial, claiming to be "doing fine" despite the fact that this person has "preyed upon [their] mind" and they are "living a lie." The pain they feel seems to be consuming them, as they say that "every day it eats me" and "this hatred plagues my mind." The singer finds solace in getting high and the way it feeds them, but ultimately they feel the need for "retribution" and to be recognized as the solution to this person's problems instead of being seen as their "pollution."
Despite the internal conflict the singer is experiencing, they seem to be determined to overcome it. They say "you can't keep me down my friend" and despite the lack of resolution to their situation, they acknowledge that it "makes me think twice." It seems that the singer is searching for a way to move on from this toxic relationship, but is struggling to find the strength to do so.
Overall, the lyrics to No Resolution tell a story of pain, denial, and the struggle to find a way forward. The singer is trapped in a cycle of hurt and addiction, but is determined to overcome it and be recognized as the solution to their tormentor's problems.

I'm doing fine
I appear to be doing well on the surface
Even though you preyed upon my mind
Despite you constantly haunting my thoughts and emotions
Been living a lie
I've been in denial about something in my life
Seems that every day it eats me
It's slowly consuming me day by day
Yeah and there's no resolution
There's no solution to my problem
Yeah but it makes me think twice
It's forcing me to reconsider my choices
Yeah but I need retribution
I crave revenge for what you've done to me
You don't get it that I'm your pollution

I'm breathing a sigh
I'm taking a moment to relax and reflect
In a passing away I'll take my time
I'll take my time before I leave this world

I'm still finding pleasure in my vices
I love the way it feeds me
I enjoy the way my addiction sustains me
You just don't get it that I'm the solution

You can't keep me down my friend
You won't be able to defeat me or bring me down
Even though this hatred plagues my mind
Despite the constant anger and resentment I feel
But I love the way you need me
But I take pleasure in the control and power I have over you

I remember seeing them play this live for one their first times here in Dayton, Ohio at the Montgomery County fairgrounds at X-Fest. Absolutely brilliantly written and played 👏 one of my favorite songs on Holding Onto Strings Better Left to Fray.
