Nova, Heather - Virus Of The Mind Lyrics






While I was watching this talk show the other day
And on it there was this guy
And he was saying "When you let other people tell you what's right
when you leave your instinct and your own truth behind he said
that's a virus of the mind,
that's a virus of the mind"
Well I guess it's kinda like loosing your sight
For a second you think that they might be right
And it feeds the doubts that you have inside
It almost starts to feels like a crime
To follow your own rhythm and rhyme

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind

Well I went to this party thing last night
A lot of people I hadn't seen in a long long time
And they wanted to know about my life
But making me feel like it wasn't quite right
Like "Where's is your kids?" and "Where is you car?"
I said "I don't have either but I have a guitar"
And I ended up feeling like I was a freak
So I found some wine and something to eat
I talked to the dog to pass the time
I told myself "I'm doing just fine"
It's just a virus of the mind

It's just a virus of the mind
I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind

It's in the deep of your soul, it's on the tip of your tongue
It's the feeling you get, when you feel young
It's in the sound of a beat, it's in the base of your spine
It's in your gut reaction, yeah every time
But they tell you what you should have, they tell you who you should be
It's in the pictures and ads and in the magazines
I'm kicking it off like a bug in the breeze
Cause is anyone out there inside me
I say "Is anyone out there inside me?"
I say "Is anyone?"

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind

I'm pretty happy, living in my
My own sweet time, living in my
Yeah I'm pretty happy, and I don't need your
Virus of the mind
Your virus of the mind

  1. M.... N....

    I love it....Thanks Tomi kiss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. j.... ....

    So, before or after Cheryl Crow? Or at the same time?

  3. D.... R....

    I dunno. Is a virus-of-the-mind like an ear-worm? Is that good or bad? Can't get the song/thought out of my head (for now).

  4. h.... ....

    This was my hymn back then

  5. N.... Y....

    like us

  6. S.... W....

     like it

  7. K.... ....

    I liked the part where she walked across the water, myself.

  8. A.... G....

    Well, this song is really smart and shares some thoughts about topics, most ppl don't wanna look at ... so simple :)

  9. S.... J....

    Ought to read Have A Virus Free Mind book series by Bernard Poolman.

  10. G.... S....

    People who say this tend to be gay or gay curious themselves, but it's OK, don't be afraid. We're a free nation still, but that may change someday.

  11. p.... ....

    gay song

  12. S.... ....

    Sexy voice, sexy girl - but honestly the song is embarrasingly bad. There's nothing relevatory or insightful about what she's saying.

  13. H.... 1....

    @FoxIslandman let heather be heather and crow a crow

  14. N.... A....

    charming song :)

  15. P.... A....

    I heard her first at 21 in Germany .... am 32 now ...still entangled in the milky way...

  16. o.... ....

    @SydneyOneSixThree ?

  17. L.... F....

    great song and great chick

  18. f.... ....

    i totally agree with this meaning of the song, the outside world doesn't define our own truth.

  19. K.... S....

    heather nova is a hawaiian godess...

    K.... S....

    Oh, really? I did not know that. Maybe she should wear more grass skirts and coconut shell bras.

    K.... S....

    Thought she was from Bermuda...

  20. A.... T....

    she looks great in this video ! One of my life-songs haha :) I don't care about money. I just need it. That sucks.

  21. D.... ....

    Always loved this song!!! Love anything she does.... can not make a bad song..

  22. J.... ....

    Virus of the mind---sort of reminds you of school reunions, doesn't it? Peoples expectations of others run rampant at them. Probably why so many people avoid them. A good "ism' to subscribe to is individualism.

  23. b.... ....

    where did these women go??? i miss them so much.

  24. d.... c....

    heather is the anti-virus for the soul

  25. a.... ....

    God I LOVE Heather Nova!

    I went through a lot 3 years ago and Heather Nova was the soundtrack to my life. I especially love this song because, damn it, she is an individual and I wish their were more like her! She has really great, compelling lyrics and a gorgeous voice. The albums South, Oyster and Siren just are just awesome.

    And how cool is she with her Telecaster?

  26. t.... ....

    Heather: you're going to ruin your boots is you keep walking on water like that !!!

  27. r.... ....

    spekie... when are you opening up the handles next? please give us a clue...

  28. G.... S....
