    Story Behind the Song
    The motivation for this song, was placing the listener in the situation of someone looking as an outsiders perspective of similar complications in Scott's life at the time, but using a female as the subject. He wrote the song to ease his mind...
    He wrote the song at home, during a study break at sometime in September 2000. The chord progression he had written earlier that year, when listening to a friend play the opening to another song. He used that progression, added a new melody, then took it in another direction for the chorus and bridge.
    During a rehearsal with the band, Lee Wilson added some additional lyrics, as the song sounded too depressing using the same subject time and time again.
    The recording took place during January 2001, at Bunbury Cathedral Grammar School in Bunbury, Western Australia. After about 3 takes of piano (Scott Bultitude-Paull) and about 5 for the vocals (Lee Wilson), the song was finished. Not perfect, but good enough :)

    Lyrics
    "No Tomorrow"
    Music - Scott Bultitude-Paull
    Lyrics - Scott Bultitude-Paull and Lee Wilson

    I can see in your eyes
    The sky clouds your dreams
    Could this really be true
    All our tears, they swallow your pride

    Why do I feel this way
    You always say nothing's wrong
    Everyone tries to help you
    But you cry that tomorrow's now gone

    And you tell us that you're fine
    So why are you still dying
    Screwed by the light of our day
    But you're not yet done lying
    Don't lose your love for this life
    You'll drown in your own sorrow
    Screwed by the sky once again
    Why do you say there's no tomorrow?

    Pull yourself back now girl
    It should have to end our way
    Learn how to love again
    Stop pretending your soul's in a cage

    Don't leave us here
    Don't leave this life
    Don't fall away
    Don't fall from my eyes...

    And you tell us that you're fine
    So why are you still dying
    Screwed by the light of our day
    But you're not yet done lying...

    Don't lose your love for this life
    You'll drown in your own sorrow
    Screwed by the sky once again
    Why do you say there's no tomorrow?
