Here's the lyrics of "Hey Now":
Sky black and blue
Blue turned to red
It's quiet in the streets now
It's screaming in your head

I ain't a fool
I've got my doubts
You say it doesn't hurt
Doesn't matter anyhow
Anyhow

Your saying
Hey we're just bleeding for nothing
It's hard to breathe
When you're standing on your own
We'll kill ourself to find freedom
You'll kill yourself to find anything
At all

So lock all the doors
And put your child to rest
It's fire in the streets now
It's quiet in your head

We're passing the time
We're breaking apart
We're damned at the end
And we're damned at the start
Blame it on the roses
Blame it on the red
We're running out of time
And we're running out of breath

Saying
Hey now we're bleeding for nothing
It's hard to breathe
When you're standing on your own
We'll kill ourself to find freedom
You'll kill yourself to find anything

You say good bye
Everday and night
With writing on the walls
Everybody's gonna need somebody
To take our troubles
And our worries
And our problems
All away

Cause
Hey we're just bleeding for nothing
It's hard to breathe
When you're standing on your own
We'll kill ourself to find freedom
You'll kill yourself to find anything
At all

Hey now
We're bleeding for nothing
It's hard to breathe
When you're standing on your own
We'll kill ourself to find freedom
You'll kill yourself to find anything at all

Hey now, hey now, hey now
Right now
Hey now, hey now, hey now
Right now
Hey now, hey now, hey now
Right now
Hey now, hey now
