Nomeansno - Madness And Death lyrics

There are no words that can describe

The joy I feel just in being alive

And when I look inside of me I see

Love, faith and fidelity

Within the dark night of the soul

There lies a hidden, warming glow

And if that glow were blue and white

Could you sleep dreamless through the night ?

But if that glow were red and black

Would you want your money back ?

It's hard enough, hard enough

Just to survive, just to be alive

Madness, madness, madness and death

Respect, Humility, Respect

Madness and Death

All you see and all you know

Hangs from a stick before your nose

The bread of life, all that you wish

Is lying at your fingertips

If all you see is what you want

And what you see is what you get

Then cease your searching, low and high

Listen to my whispered lies

Ask for nothing

Close your eyes

It's hard enough, hard enough

Just to survive, just to be alive

SURPRISE !

Madness, madness, madness and death

Respect, Humility, Respect

Madness and Death
