HARD MAGIC – “Stop The Madness” – Lyrics
I hope you can hear me in heaven
Did you know, did you know
That you were number seven?
That I’ve known, that I’ve known
It’s so unfair, I know no one really cares
But what most mattered, your dreams shattered
Now you’re gone, now you’re gone
To be alive is to live and learn
To love and to be loved in return
So why is it when you reached out
It was AIDS, you had to learn about?
So stop, stop, stop the madness
I can’t take anymore of this sadness
Do we have to die in masses?
Before it stops
Stop, stop the madness
I didn’t know you that well
Enough to know you went through hell
All alone, all alone
Is it always going to end like this?
Would the world listen to my fist?
Or just moan, or just groan
Now you’re gone, now you’re gone
To be alive is to live and learn
To love and to be loved in return
So why is it when you reached out
It was AIDS, you had to learn about?
So stop, stop, stop the madness
I can’t take anymore of this sadness
Do we have to die in masses?
Before it stops
Stop, stop the madness
