lyrics

CRAZY MAMA (Hiorns) Nov. 2013

I could tell you how It feels
We could talk until the morning
You fight every word I say
And you won’t heed no warning
Living life like you just wanna die
You think there’s gonna be another
Always looking for that perfect high
And you know your days are over

People say don’t waste your time
You can’t change what’s in a body’s mind

Crazy mama, take your bow
Tell the world that you’re no clown
Crazy mama, send them away
There’s no reason to explain

Well I used to sympathise
But now I think that it’s over
You made a world to suit your lies
Where everybody just rolls over

People say watch your heart
Don’t let just anybody use it

Crazy mama, lift your head
This is where the madness ends
Crazy eyes turning red
You shout and bawl you wake the dead

Crazy mama, lift your eyes
Tell them where their future lies
Crazy mama, there's no end
Tell them where the river bends
Crazy mama, lift your head
Tell them when you reach the end
Tell them I never said
One day you'll scream and no one will care
