About "No Shot Was Fired"
No Shot Was Fired
(Music & Lyrics by Vicente Viray)

No shot was fired
Another false start
I’m putting together
What you’re pulling apart

Though we are children
We curse like adults
I’ve cut off my father
But wear his gold watch, yeah

One day I’ll learn the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn all the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn all the ways of the world

The sky in the winter
Is paler than white
I’ve emptied a bottle
In pale winter’s light.

Watching an ice storm
Hang glass on the trees
Falling leaves shatter
As frosted leaves drop, yeah

One day I’ll learn the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn all the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn the ways of the world
One day I’ll learn all the ways of the world
