Butterflies 02:34
lyrics

Oh, butterflies in my stomach Butterflies when I walk to you Butterflies make my body plummet I fall right to your shoes There's pasta on your head Cuz you got angel hair Your body's young and pretty Your skin looks soft and fair Wanna talk to you and feel you I'm paralyzed, I'm not sure why But then I feel that tingle And I know it's butterflies Chorus Start itching when I'm near ya Wolf under a full moon Everything inside me Just broke out of its cocoon By the playground, my emotions Burst by the billions Seeing your pigtails, my tummy Could be a whole pavilion Chorus It's hard to see you every day Cuz I can't come out and play I was told I have to stay At least a hundred fifty feet away Chorus x2

Oh! Allison 02:09

Oh! Allison, you left too soon I didn't get to tell you how I really feel yeah Allison, come back to me So I can let you know that my love was real yeah Never thought I'd know a Girl with such an aura Steely eyes of a cobra that drew me in Thought the night sky, the moon or Stars, something lunar Would tell me to meet you sooner but it didn't Oh! Allison you left too soon You hopped into your car and then you drove away yeah Allison I may've asked you out But once you were gone I didn't know what else to say Never thought I'd meet a Girl with such features Say one wrong thing, she'da knocked me out I kept my lips in line Kept my nose to the grind I was working overtime all to taste her mouth Hard to believe she's gone, we Didn't deserve this quandary The thought of her is staying on me like a tattoo No I never kissed her I missed being her mister Though I ended up dating her sister, don't let that distract you No, no, no, N-Oh! Allison, you left too soon I didn't get to tell you how I really feel yeah Allison, come back to me So I can let you know that my love was real yeah Allison... Oh! Allison Allison you left too soon

Obnoxious Heart 03:31

Obnoxious heart You hurt so bad You make me cry, I'm sad Obnoxious heart You run my world Why can't I date my own girl? Obnoxious heart Put your feelings 'fore mine It's my body, I'm fine Obnoxious heart You've heard my plea Now for God's sake get out of me Silly boy You aren't a man Without me, you'd have no plan Silly boy Walk to my beat You're in my class now take a seat Silly boy I'll teach you love Disobey, and in plain view there will be blood Silly boy With all that flack It may build up and I'll attack Obnoxious heart The words you preach Are meant to hurt and not to teach Obnoxious heart Fall behind I'd like to catch up with my mind Wise young man As you said Listen to me: the voice in your head Wise young man You have a brain And understand your heart's inane Wise young man I'm all you need Plus your heart may let you bleed Wise young man Take that knife Remove your heart and take his life Obnoxious heart, he is no more From the hole inside my body on the floor Demonic mind, you're in my head I'm above... I see my kitchen tiles running red...

CruciFix Us 03:34
lyrics
buy track
I got a friend named Christian He's got no religion like me But he's forced by his parents To go to church, apparently We're some kinda people you can boss around We're ones who need to find the path Don't try to lead us onto holy ground Don't try to wash us in your Sabbath You can try as much as you want to You can try as much as you wish Hopefully no holy spirit will haunt you Cuz we can't be cruci-fixed Now isn't that ironic? Christian ain't Christian and Ronoc just ain't... We don't worship the Holy Father I guess that shows I'm not a saint So put down the nails and giant crosses So what if our eyes don't meet? Just goes to show you ain't our bosses Just stick to what you wanna believe Chorus Man, don't wanna think about Jesus and God Man, I need no reason why I'm alive Only Nazareth I care about's the 'Hair of the Dog' Band back in 1975 Chorus Oh no no cruci-fixed Can't be cruci-fixed Cruci-Fixed

We Ride at Midnight 01:55
lyrics

We ride at midnight Until the break of dawn We ride at midnight Until we see the sun And we won't come home until the battle's won Until we win the fight We ride at midnight We ride at midnight Means midnight's when we start We ride at midnight Tearing the countryside apart And we won't leave home until it's pitch dark Then we'll be out of sight We ride at midnight We ride at midnight Unless you want to stay home We ride at midnight I'll be fine out on my own Under the cool desert moon, sand dry as a bone I think I'll be alright I ride at midnight

Abuser 03:43
lyrics

I walk among the two dozen twenty-one year olds Wondering how I could just get you and me alone When our eyes meet I keep a shy, sweet smile on Stalking you like nylon, not stopping till I get what I want I'm the ruler of my own little world But a loser in a public hell I can ruin Daddy's little girl An abuser, but you can never tell I'm your temptation, I'm not pretend but your mind's made up Cuz what's in your cup is helping me with my mental manipulation Make you darker when I'm on ya; bronzer to a platinum blonde, it's Not often ya encounter a monster from your skeleton's closet May be true when you say I made a big mess Of you, sure your life's a living hell I may have ruined Daddy's little princess An abuser that you know so well You just couldn't tell Until it was too late After only two dates I didn't want to wait 'Baby it's just me You know you can trust me This is love, it must be' Then after I come to I leave you in the dust, 'Do you Really think I loved you?'

When the Bed's Empty 04:28
lyrics

We had a home in the countryside on the greenest grasses We had a toddler and two tabby cats That's when our love was strongest but that was 7 years ago Now it's clear as crystal our love's fallen flat I don't know where the time went But the sands of time eroded us I know I meant less to you than you meant to me Now my head's erased of all the outside times we had I can't remember the times when the bed was empty Our light was brightest when our smiles were wider The times we drove for miles were indeed the best We used to stroll through fields and meander the meadows Those times ended abruptly... who could've guessed? I don't know where the time went But some time along I fell asleep, so If you gotta wake me this time please wake me gently Now my head's in an amnesic state All the good times we had are gone I can't remember any times when the bed was empty SOLO I don't know where the time went But some thing made you change your mind The split didn't hurt me on the outside just mentally Now my head's stained with heart-shaped tears My sheets are stained with sin cuz girl I can't recall the times when the bed's empty

Crazy'd Raise Crazy 03:10
lyrics

I don't want a baby cuz they'd be crazy like me A maniac manic mini-me Would leave me panic-stricken, the Idea simply gives me anxiety Cuz crazy'd raise crazy And nobody wants more of Crazy'd raise crazy I'd say one me's enough I ain't cut out for fatherhood so no kid would do me good at all Self-proclaimed dumbass, pervert, weird Dude whose true use is [insert here] Can't be a dad if I'm too self-involved Chorus On the contrary, kids are the best When it's not up to you whether they become a mess I was lucky to have a dad that taught me shit Like that he was a dick which made me the opposite Maybe I'm too cynical or it's just a lack of bravery but Either way I don't wanna run the risk of birthing a child that's crazy Chorus x2

What's Wrong With Me? 03:24
lyrics
buy track
My friends are out having a good time without me Behind my back I know they're talking about me They're asking why it takes me so much time To build up strength to get over my mind Something there is pushing my body away From the good time I'd be having if I went out to play What's wrong with me? I hate how I'm so dull Eating through the friendly piece of my skull Screams ring through my head cuz I'm a coward Walk into a funhouse and my mood's soured Sitting 'gainst the wall with my ass on the floor Didn't know I wanted to leave till I came through the door Waiting for the herd to thin but they keep coming Could be having as much fun as my thoughts which are running What's wrong with me? This feeling's never occurred I'm shocked but 'shock' to me is just another ock-word Like the sun is going down My reality's set in Self-doubt is proudly gouging at me Leading to a dead end Questions arise, getting a rise Out of my XL skin School of bad thoughts, I'm ready to expel them Oh yeah What's wrong with me? I'm unlike the usual Versus my brain, the feeling ain't mutual What's wrong with me? I'm a fucking weirdo Why the hell am I so fucking weird, OH

about

The 10th album; the most serious album. In 'Resentment Harbor', Ronoc 'N' Roll's takes on heavier subject matter including abuse, self-doubt, and the dark sides of love. Just under thirty minutes, the piece is a deeper listen than other albums, with few moments of levity and only a handful of breaks from musical melancholy.
