The Cure - Endsong [Mogwai Remix]

And I'm outside in the dark staring at the blood red moon
Remembering the hopes and dreams I had and all I had to do
And wondering what became of that boy and the world he called his own
I'm outside in the dark wondering how I got so old

It's all gone, it's all gone
Nothing left of all I loved
It all feels wrong
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone
No hopes, no dreams, no world
No I, I don't belong
I don't belong here

It's all gone, it's all gone
I will lose myself in time
It won't be long
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone

Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing

The Cure - End

I think I've reached that point
Where giving up and going on
Are both the same dead end to me
Are both the same old song

I think I've reached that point
Where every wish has come true
And tired disguised oblivion
Is everything I do

Please stop loving me
Please stop loving me
I am none of these things

I think I've reached that point
Where all the things you have to say
And hopes for something more from me
Are just games to pass the time away

Please stop loving me
Please stop loving me
I am none of these things

I think I've reached that point
Where every word that you write
Of every blood dark sea
And every soul black night
And every dream you dream me in
And every perfect free from sin
And burning eyes
And hearts on fire
Are just the same old song

Please stop loving me
Please stop loving me
I am none of these things
I am none of these things

I am none of these things

The Cure -Trap

Drowning like a fly in my drink
You drone about being on the brink
But I really don’t care what you think
Oh I’m sick of it all
Sick of it all
I hate the way it’s always the same
Hate recrimination and blame
And you just wait for me to fuck up again
Oh I’m sick of it all
Sick of it all

The ways you try and put me down
Sweet revenge for the things I’ve done
The ways you try and twist me around
„Give me a taste of my own medicine“

Drowning like a fly in my drink
You whine about being out of synch
But I really don’t care what you think
Oh I’m sick of it all
Sick of it all

I hate the way you want me to be
Hate regret and humility
And you just wait for me to fall at your feet
Oh I’m sick of it all
Sick of it all

The ways you try and run me down
Make me pay for the things I’ve been
The ways you try and push me around
All you want to do is win

Any love you once felt for me
Has turned into this travesty
Of selfishness and jealousy
So why can’t you just let me go?
Any love you once felt for me
Has turned into this travesty
Of selfishness and jealousy
So why can’t I just let you go?

The Cure - Warsong

Oh, it's misery the way we fight
For bitter ends we tear the night in two
I want your death, you want my life
We tell each other lies to hide the truth
And we hate ourselves for everything we do
It’s shame wounded pride, vengeful anger burning deep inside
Poison in our blood and pain, broken dreams, mournful hopes
For all we might have been, all misunderstood

But no way out of this
No way for us to find a way to peace
We never found before
However we regret
All we will ever know
Is bitter ends
For we are born to war
(For we are born to war)

However we regret
All we will ever know
Is bitter ends
For we are born to war

The Cure - It's Not You

You wear your smile
Like it was going out of fashion
Dress to inflame
But douse any ideas of passion
You carry your love in a trinket
Hanging round your throat
Always inviting
Always exciting
But I must not take off my coat

Well I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure who I've got in mind
But I know
That it's not you
That it's not you

You ask me questions
That I never wanted to hear
I am the only one
Just until you finish this year
I would murder you
If I had the alibi
Here in my hand
And you just laugh
'cause you don't understand

That I'm tired of hanging around
I want somebody new
I'm not sure
Who I've got in mind
But I know that it's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
It's not you
No it's not you
That it's not you
It's not you
It's not you

The Cure - A Chain Of Flowers

Please wake up
It's so dark and cold
Please wake up
I feel so alone

And I feel so scared
That you're going away
And I feel so scared

All I want is summer
Stories from before
It's like the day you tired to hide
Behind the churchyard wall
And feel asleep before I came
I found you in a chain of flowers

Sleeping like a marble girl
Sleeping in another world

I will never tell you
All the different ways
All the different ways
You make me so afraid

Please wake up
It's so dark and cold
Please wake up
I feel so alone

And I feel so scared
That you're going away
And I feel so scared
That you're going away

I will never tell you
All the different ways
All the different ways
You make me so afraid

The Cure - Halo

I never felt like this with anyone before
You only have to smile and I'm dizzy
You make the world go 'round a thousand times an hour
Just touch my head and send me spinning

I never felt like this with anyone before
You show me colours and I'm crying
You hold my eyes in yours and open up the world
I can't believe all this, I can't believe all this

I want to keep this feeling deep inside of me
I want you always in my heart
You are everything
You are everything

I never felt like this with anyone before
You fill my head all full of rainbows
And all the rainbows end as every step you take
Just to be with you forever

I want to keep this feeling deep inside of me
I want you always in my heart
You are everything
You are everything
You are everything

The Cure - The Same Deep Water As You

Kiss me goodbye
Pushing out before I sleep
Can't you see I try?
Swimming the same deep water as you is hard
"The shallow drowned lose less than we"
You breathe
The strangest twist upon your lips
"And we shall be together... "

"Kiss me goodbye
Bow your head and join with me"
And face pushed deep
Reflections meet
The strangest twist upon your lips
And disappear
The ripples clear
And laughing
Break against your feet
And laughing
Break the mirror sweet
"So we shall be together... "

"Kiss me goodbye"
Pushing out before I sleep
It's lower now and slower now
The strangest twist upon your lips
But I don't see
And I don't feel
But tightly hold up silently
My hands before my fading eyes
And in my eyes
Your smile
The very last thing before I go

I will kiss you, I will kiss you
I will kiss you forever on nights like this
I will kiss you, I will kiss you
And we shall be together

The Cure - Endsong

And I'm outside in the dark staring at the blood red moon
Remembering the hopes and dreams I had and all I had to do
And wondering what became of that boy and the world he called his own
I'm outside in the dark wondering how I got so old

It's all gone, it's all gone
Nothing left of all I loved
It all feels wrong
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone
No hopes, no dreams, no world
No I, I don't belong
I don't belong here

It's all gone, it's all gone
I will lose myself in time
It won't be long
It's all gone, it's all gone, it's all gone

Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing, the end of every song
Left alone with nothing
Nothing
Nothing
Nothing

The Cure - The Walk [Acoustic version]

I called you after midnight
Then ran until I burst
I passed the howling woman
And stood outside your door

We walked around a lake
And woke up in the rain
And everyone turned over
Troubled in their dreams again

Visiting time is over
And so we walk away
And both play dead then cry out loud
Why we always cry this way?

I kissed you in the water
And made your dry lips sing
I saw you look
Like a Japanese baby
In an instant I remembered everything...

I called you after midnight
Then ran until my heart burst
I passed the howling woman
And stood outside your door

I kissed you in the water
And made your dry lips sing
I saw you look
Like a Japanese baby
In an instant I remembered everything...

The Cure - Sinking

I am slowing down
As the years go by
I am sinking

So I trick myself
Like everybody else

The secrets I hide
Twist me inside
They make me weaker

So I trick myself
Like everybody else

I crouch in fear and wait
I’ll never feel again…
If only I could remember
Anything at all

The Cure - Mint Car

The sun is up
I'm so happy I could scream!
And there's nowhere else in the world I'd rather be
Than here with you
It's perfect
It's all I ever wanted
I almost can't believe that it's for real

I really don't think it gets any better than this
Vanilla smile
And a gorgeous strawberry kiss!
Birds sing we swing
Clouds drift by and everything is like a dream
It's everything I wished

Never guessed it got this good
Wondered if it ever would
Really didn't think it could
Do it again?
I know we should!!!

The sun is up
I'm so fizzy I could burst!
You wet through and me headfirst
Into this is perfect
It's all I ever wanted
Ow! it feels so big it almost hurts!

Never guessed it got this good
Wondered if it ever would
Really didn't think it could
Do it some more?
I know we should!!!

Say it will always be like this
The two of us together
It will always be like this
Forever and ever and ever...

Never guessed it got this good
Wondered if it ever would
Really didn't think it could
Do it all the time?
I know that we should!!!

The Cure - The Dream

You’re too far away

Too far away to touch

And this mother’s love inside me

Hurts too much

Prettily waving

Playing on the sand

Dreaming of everything

Dancing

Dancing in our hands

Dancing

Dancing

Dizzy dizzy dizzy

As I speak

Like a tumbling cat

I watch in fascination

Like a vampire bat

Don’t do it don’t do it

Don’t do it don’t do it

Don’t give it away

We’ll use it up tomorrow

If we don’t use it today

Rest your head

Oh! just put it outside

All wrapped up in ribbons

The night

The dream

The time love died

We pushed it in our mouths

Pushed it deep inside

All wrapped up in ribbons

The night

The dream

The time

Love died

The Cure - World In My Eyes

Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won't have to move
You just sit still

Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes

I'll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won't need a map
Believe me

Now let my body do the moving
And let my hands do the soothing
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can feel now
That's all there is

Let me put you on a ship
On a long, long trip
Your lips close to my lips

All the islands in the ocean
All the heaven's in motion
Let me show you the world in my eyes

That's all there is
Nothing more than you can touch now
That's all there is

Let me show you the world in my eyes

(originally recorded by Depeche Mode)

The Cure - Taking Off

Tomorrow I can start again

With back to earth and carry on

The same as I did yesterday

Yeah I’ll pick it up once more

And morning I’ll be onto it

From square one start

And push it for a bit

Like I do everyday…

I’ll get it down for sure

But tonight I climb with you

Tonight

So high with you

Tonight I shine with you

Tonight

Oh i’m so alive with you

Tomorrow I’ll begin anew

With heavy head to hold it

As I do it all like yesterday

Yeah I’ll break it out again

And morning I’ll be there in time

For clock back move

And make it for a while

To get through everyday…

I’ll roll it out the same

But tonight I climb with you

Tonight

So high with you

Tonight I shine with you

Tonight i’m so alive…

With you it’s always here and never there

With you it’s always here and never where

With you it’s always here and never how

With you it’s always here and always now

Yeah tomorrow I will start again

With back to earth and carry on

The same as I did yesterday

Yeah I’ll pick it up once more

And morning I’ll be onto it

From square one start and “bit a for it push”

Like I do everyday…

I’ll get it down for sure

But tonight I climb with you

Tonight

So high with you

Tonight I shine with you

Tonight

The Cure - Birdmad Girl

This girl has got a smile

That can make me cry

This girl just burns with love

She's burning burning deep outside

Night time night time

Sets my house on fire

I'll turn into the melting man

I'll lose my life

To feel I feel desire

Oh I should feel

Like a polar bear

Like a polar bear

It's impossible

She flies outside this cage

Singing girl-mad words

I keep her dark thoughts deep inside

As black as stone

As mad as birds

Wild wild wild

And never turn away

Sends me all her love

She sends me everything

She sends me everywhere

Oh I could be

A polar bear

Oh I could be

A polar bear

But it's impossible

I try to talk

The sky goes red

I forget

So fill my head

With some of this

Some of that

Some of every word she said

Oh I should be

A polar bear

But it's imposible

The Cure - Plastic Passion

Plastic passion is a hard to handle

Plastic passion is a sold out scandal

Oh! it’s a plastic passion

Plastic passion is the ladies lover

Plastic passion is the marble mother

Oh! it’s a plastic passion

Plastic passion is a diamond delight

Plastic passion is the nadir of night

Oh! it’s a plastic passion

Plastic passion is a hycoscine heart

Plastic passion is a transparent tart

Oh! it’s a plastic passion

Plastic passion is a gold guarantee

This plastic passion is murdering me

Oh! it’s a plastic passion

The Cure - Bare

If you’ve got something left to say
You’d better say it now
Anything but “stay”
Just say it now
We know we’ve reached the end
We just don’t know how
“Well at least we’ll still be friends”
Yeah one last useless vow…

“There are different ways to live”
Yeah I know that stuff
“Other ways to give”
Yeah all that stuff
But holding onto used to be
Is not enough
Memory’s not life
And it’s not love

>We should let it all go
It never stays the same
So why does it hurt me like this
When you say that I’ve changed?
When you say that I’ve aged?
Say I’m afraid…

And all the tears you cry
They’re not tears for me
Regrets about your life
They’re not regrets for me
It never turns out how you want
Why can’t you see?
t all just slips away
It always slips away
Eventually…

So if you’ve got nothing left to say
Just say goodbye
Turn your face away
And say goodbye
You know we’ve reached the end
You just don’t know why
And you know we can’t pretend
After all this time

So just let it all go
Nothing ever stays the same
So why does it hurt me like this
To say that I’ve changed?
To say that I’ve aged?
Say i’m afraid…

But there are long long nights when I lay awake
And I think of what I’ve done
Of how I’ve thrown my sweetest dreams away
And what I’ve really become
And however hard I try
I will always feel regret
However hard I try
I will never forget

I will never forget

The Cure - The Loudest Sound

Side by side in silence

They pass away the day

So comfortable, so habitual…

And so nothing left to say

Nothing left to say

Nothing left to say

Side by side in silence

His thoughts echo round

He looks up at the sky…

She looks down at the ground

Stares down at the ground

Stares down at the ground

Side by side in silence

They wish for different worlds

She dreams him as a boy…

And he loves her as a girl

Loves her as a girl…

And side by side in silence

Without a single word…

It’s the loudest sound

It’s the loudest sound…

It’s the loudest sound I ever heard

The Cure - Other Voices

Whisper your name in an empty room

You brush past my skin

As soft as fur

Taking hold

I taste your scent

Distant noises

Other voices

Pounding in my broken head

Commit the sin

Commit yourself

And all the other voices said

Change your mind

You’re always wrong

Come around at Christmas

I really have to see you

Smile at me slyly

Another festive compromise

But I live with desertion

And eight million people

Distant noises

Other voices

Pulsing in my swinging arms

Caress the sound

So many dead

And all the other voices said

Change your mind

You’re always wrong
