The Cure, as many of you know, are one of my favorite bands, and this track is just so powerful. Its a song of love, and pain, and heartache, and all that other sappy shit that makes me truly enjoy a song. It also contains some of the most powerful lyrics I have ever heard.
From The Edge Of The Deep Green Sea
-The Cure
Every time we do this
I fall for her
Wave after wave after wave
It's all for her
"I know this can't be wrong" I say
(And I'll lie to keep her happy)
"As long as I know that you know
That today I belong
Right here with you
Right here with you..."
And so we watch the sun come up
From the edge of the deep green sea
And she listens like her head's on fire
Like she wants to believe in me
So I try
Put your hands in the sky
Surrender
Remember
We'll be here forever
And we'll never say goodbye...
I've never been so
Colorfully-see-through-head before
I've never been so
Wonderfully-me-you-want-some-more
And all I want is to keep you like this
You and me alone
A secret kiss
And don't go home
Don't go away
Don't let this end
Please stay
Not just for today
"Never never never never
Never let me go"
She says
"Hold me like this
For a hundred thousand million days"

But suddenly she slows
And looks down at my breaking face
Why do you cry? What did I say?
But it's just rain I smile
Brushing my tears away...
I wish I could just stop
I know another moment
Will break my heart
Too many tears
Too many times
Too many years I've cried over you
How much more can we use it up?
Drink it dry?
Take this drug?
Looking for something forever gone
But something
We will always want?
"Why why why are you letting me go?"
She says
I feel you pulling back
I feel you changing shape...
And just as I'm breaking free
She hangs herself in front of me
Slips her dress
Like a flag to the floor
And hands in the sky
Surrenders it all...
I wish I could just stop
I know another moment
Will break my heart
Too many tears
Too many times
Too many years I've cried over you
It's always the same
Wake up in the rain
Head in pain
Hung in shame
A different name
Same old game
Love in vain
And miles and miles and miles and miles
And miles away from home again...

you've made me a believer in this song, as it was never one of my really super favorites before.
~thank you~
ps: spencer will have to wear a button down shirt and high-tops.

i am going to be brutally honest with you. I really never listened to the Cure, because one of my friends tried to commit suicide to it twice, and that was kind of, just, i dunno, like a turnoff. made me think bad things. but when i read these words, they really brought up a lot of emotion in me. especially these lines:
I know another moment
Will break my heart
Too many tears
Too many times
Too many years I've cried over you
How much more can we use it up?
...
Looking for something forever gone
*sigh* spencer i think i'm gonna have to home and download my very first Cure song. thank you.

Find one person you can count on forever, one person you can love forever, and one person you can be with forever... and if you're lucky, it will all be the same person.
