Doctor, doctor, search your remedies This time, bedrest is the last thing I need Addicted to our promiscuity We fall asleep in the perfect stranger's sheets Confused by lust, we think we've found love's true meaning Never waking up to realize it was only a dream We're using the sex so recklessly For cleaning our conscience, and sleeping unconscious We're so caught up in the ecstasy Of waking up in a different bed every day Shallow hearts are a contagious disease Spread from Hollywood thrills and urban magazines If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy in melody Is this how love is supposed to feel? Like a highway where we're drunk at the wheel? If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy in melody The cold morning sun saved me from my comatose As i was drowning alone, between her blankets and my hopes Naivety had me buried six feet deep Under the impression that she'd always wake up next to me Songtexte You're just a chauffeur who so furtively arranged To promise me rides for alcohol in exchange And you blame the other drivers' mistakes As my head's in the windshield, and you leave unscathed Shallow hearts are a contagious disease Spread from Hollywood thrills and urban magazines If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy in melody Is this how love is supposed to feel? Like a highway where we're drunk at the wheel? If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy in melody We live in anxiety of rejection So we self-medicate with sex And overdose, clueless of the side effects A loss of morality and self-respect In the blink of an eye, all our integrity's gone In the wake of one night where we didn't stand strong We're all insecure, we all feel stripped down Someone find a cure, because we're all gonna drown The doctor came in, and said "wake up, wake up" And the nightmare's were gone as we opened our eyes Conscious, our consciences took control Of our maturing minds, as we realized Shallow hearts are a contagious disease Spread from Hollywood thrills and urban magazines If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy in melody Is this how love is supposed to feel? Like a highway where we're drunk at the wheel? If this is a sickness, an epidemic's been witnessed And I've got the remedy: maturity Aus Songtexte Mania
