Hippies at Heart Lyrics

Madness


Madness

Lately I've been having nightmares
Every night, and nightly
This image keeps haunting me
Babies driving nails through my forehead
And as I enjoy the pain
I question if I'm still sane


It seems I've come

Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive
Oh, no! I've come
Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive
Alive is that like you?


People people without faces
Speaking with no sound
Their echoes are all around
A handshake questions on how I'm doing
And I play along
I act, and I act strong


It seems I've come
Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive
Oh, no! I've come
Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive
Alive is that like you?


But when you're not around
Do I still do it?
And if I hide it away
Is it still so?


Voices clouding all my senses
Make my life complete
My senses made me weak
Maybe it's come to this my reality
Has devoured me
Who am I left to be?


If seems l've come

Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive I know I've come
Come to depend on madness
Just to get me through this
Just to feel alive
Alive is that like you?


But when you're not around
Do I still do it?
And if I hide away
Is it still so




Feel Free


I do believe we're running
Running out of time again
We all seem scared of living
Living life as if it's about to end


I can't believe we 're dreaming
Dreaming of a better place
When all of us are hiding
As if life is a disgrace


That is the way I see it
That is how life can be
So maybe slow down a bit
And just Feel Free


We all smile to each other as if all is good and well
We all seem pretty happy
With stories that are good to tell
Behind the fairytale there is another truth
We hang on to a dream that we all are about to loose
So why is it so hard to choose


Teach our children truly

That every day is where to play
That all the scare of living
Is a way to say
Stay Away


That is the way I see it
That is how life can be
So maybe slow down a bit
And just Feel Free




Nail in my Foot


Dog eat dog - slave beat slave
Someone fools love -
And then someone must pay
Ooh love - is like a nail in my foot sometimes


Sometimes you shine - like the sun above
And when the moon rises - it's the end of love...
Sweet love - like a nail in my foot sometimes
Ooh love - is like a nail in my foot sometimes
Like a nail in my foot sometimes


Sometime I want to fly
But I can't take off
Your biittersweet love
Is weighting me down
But I can't get enough -


Your love is like behind the Berlin wall
But unlike the Berlin wall
This wall will never fall
Oooh love....  it's like a nail in my foot sometimes


Sometimes you shine like the sun above
But when the moon rises
It's the end of love
Sweet love it's like a nail in my foot sometimes




Take me Home


You are in danger
So am I
We are all human
and doomed thereby


Priests and governments
Generals and pills
The ones that threatens us
The ones that kill


Time to get serious
Time to make that call
No time to worry
Somethings must fall


Be you my brother
Be here there for me soon
Be you my sister
Let´s make it bloom


Let us all rejoice
That now the time is right
Let us come together
And party all night
Let us let us stay on
The path to be free
To find the magic entrance
We all used to see


Time to get ready
Time to be firm
Time to convey
No time to burn


Be you my brother
Be here there for me soon
Be you my sister
Let´s make it bloom


Time to get critical
Time to damn it all
Rules and regulations
Just have to go


The tyranny of government
The tyranny that scares
Bring us some justice
Bring us some care


And take me home
