Song Lyrics (Burn by The Cure)

Six Different Ways
This is stranger than I thought
Six different ways inside my heart
And every one I'll keep tonight
Six different ways go deep inside
I'll tell them anything at all
I know I'll give them more and more
I'll tell them anything at all
I know I'll give the world and more
They think I'm on my hands and head
This time they're much too slow
Six sides to every lie I say
It's that American voice again
"It was never quite like this before
Not one of you is the same... "
(do-do-do-do)
This is stranger than I thought
Six different ways inside my heart
And everyone I'll keep tonight
Six different ways go deep inside
 
OMG! I MISS POSTING HERE SO MUCH!!! ok from the top of my head, sneaking this after work, here's some favorite lines:
remembering you
standing quiet in the rain
as i ran to your heart to be near,
and we kissed
as the sky fell in
holding you close
how i always held close in your fear...
....god i need my computer fixed at home...
 
oh, i really love it here!
well you thought of it all
...candlelight
...coconut ice
and fur on the floor.

Trust
There is no-one left in the world
That I can hold onto
There is really no-one left at all
There is only you
And if you leave me now
You leave all that we were
Undone
There is really no-one left
You are the only one
And still the hardest part for you
To put your trust in me
I love you more than I can say
Why won't you just believe?
 
ohhh minimows....how i used to listen to that song in highschool and mourn how sad and depressed i was when my life was so easy i only wish i could go back to that time now....i miss posting here...
 
As... odd as this song is, I've always loved it.
Catch
Yes I know who you remind me of
A girl I think I used to know
Yes I'd see her when the day got colder
On those days when it felt like snow
You know I even think that she stared like you
She used to just stand there and stare
And roll her eyes right up to heaven
And make like I just wasn't there
And she used to fall down a lot
That girl was always falling
Again and again
And I used to sometimes try to catch her
But I never even caught her name
And sometimes we would spend the night
Just rolling about on a floor
And I remember
Even though it felt soft at the time
I always used to wake up sore
You know I even think that she smiled like you
She used to just stand there and smile
And her eyes would go all sort of far away
And stay like that for quite a while
And I remember she used to fall down a lot
That girl was always falling
Again and again
And I used to sometimes try to catch her
But I never even caught her name
Yes I sometimes even tried to catch her
But I never even caught her name
-Spencer
 
...you guys must read my mind sometimes. i finally got my computer back to normal, and all day at work i head "catch" stuck in my head and couldn't wait to come post it but spencer went and beat me to it....
here's one that robert did with the singer of sioux and the banshees. it's an okay song but the lyrics are kinda fun, reminds me of an acid trip or something...
Like a looking Glass girl
in a minature world
saw you dance like dice
and tumble to the floor
like a looking Glass girl
in a minature world
whirl your disney arms
and jump the merry-go-round
The Umbrella man is shouting
We shake his paper hands
there's mirrors
down beneath our feet so
"Let's skate Down the street"
The Casino man is laughing
he wears a shivering hat
We peel away like tinsel
Stick like splinters to the wall
Like a looking glass girl
In a minature world
She saw you dressed in rags
In-and-out of a jack-in-a-box
because she's a looking glass girl
in a minature world
whirl your see-saw-arms
and ride the catherine wheel
(foot, foot)
 
To Wish Impossible Things
Remember how it used to be
When the sun would fill up the sky
Remember how we used to feel
Those days would never end
Those days would never end
Remember how it used to be
When the stars would fill the sky
Remember how we used to dream
Those nights would never end
Those nights would never end
It was the sweetness of your skin
It was the hope of all we might have been
That fills me with the hope to wish
Impossible things
But now the sun shines cold
And all the sky is grey
The stars are dimmed by clouds and tears
And all i wish
Is gone away
All i wish
Is gone away
All i wish
Is gone away
 
if i can have nothing else, i have this....
"faith"
Catch me if I fall
I'm losing hold
I can't just carry on this way
And every time
I turn away
Lose another blind game
The idea of perfection holds me
Suddenly I see you change
Everything at once
The same
But the mountain never moves
Rape me like a child
Christened in blood
Painted like an unknown saint
There's nothing left but hope
Your voice is dead
And old
And always empty
Trust in me through closing years
Perfect moments wait
If only we could stay
Please
Say the right words
Or cry like the stone white clown
And stand forever
Lost forever in a happy crowd
No one lifts their hands
No one lifts their eyes
Justified with empty words
The party just gets better and better
I went away alone
With nothing left
But faith
 
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
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
Of other voices
Pulsing in my swinging arms
Caress the sound
So many dead
And all the other voices sing
Change your mind
You're always wrong
 
A Strange Day
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Give me your eyes
That I might see the blind man kissing my hands
The sun is humming
My head turns to dust as he plays on his knees
And the sand
And the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away on a strange day
And I laugh as I drift in the wind
Blind
Dancing on a beach of stone
Cherish the faces as they wait for the end
A sudden hush across the water
And we're here again...
And the sand
And the sea grows
I close my eyes
Move slowly through drowning waves
Going away
On a strange day
My head falls backs
And the walls crash down
And the sky
And the impossible
Explode
Held for one moment I remember a song
An impression of sound
Then everything is gone
Forever
A strange day...
 
Killing an Arab
Standing on a beach
With a gun in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring down the barrel
At the arab on the ground
See his open mouth
But hear no sound
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
I can turn and walk away
Or I can fire the gun
Staring at the sky
Staring at the sun
Whichever I choose
It amounts to the same
Absolutely nothing
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
Feel the steel butt jump
Smooth in my hand
Staring at the sea
Staring at the sand
Staring at myself
Reflected in the eyes of
The dead man on the beach
The dead man
On the beach
I'm alive
I'm dead
I'm the stranger
Killing an arab
 
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
 
hey guys! i'ts been awhile but here's a haunting one for you guys...
fear of ghosts
Like a feeling that I'm down
Down inside my heart
Like I'm looking out through
Splitting bloodred
Windows in my heart
From a higher up than heaven
And a harder down than stone
Shake the fear that always clawing
Pulls me clawing down alone
As I spitting splitting bloodred
Breaking windows in my heart
And the past is taunting
Fear of ghosts
Is forcing me apart
And the further I get
From the things that I care about
The less I care about
How much further away I get...
I am lost again
With everything gone
And more alone
Than I have ever been
I expect you to understand
To feel it too
But I know that even if you will
You cannot ever help me
Nor can I
Ever help you
 
something to look forward to- the cure's greatest hits album is due out on november 13th...
want
i'm always wanting more
anything i haven't got
everything i want it all
i just can't stop
planning all my days away
never find new ways to stay
never feel enough today
tomorrow must be more
more drink more dreams
more bed more drugs
more lust more lies
more hate more love
more fear more fun
more pain more flesh
more stars more smiles
more fame more sex
however hard i want
i know deep down inside
i'll never really get
more hope or any more time
any more time
any more time
any more time
i want the sky to fall in
i want lightning and thunder
i want blood instead of rain
i want the world to make me wonder
want to walk on water
take a trip to the moon
oh give me all this
and give me it soon
more drink more dreams more drugs
more lust more lies more love
however hard i want
i know deep down inside
i'll never really get
more hope or any more time
any more time
any more time
any more time
 
One More Time
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'd love to touch the sky tonight
I'd love to touch the sky
So take me in your arms
And lift me like a child
And hold me up so high
And never let me go
Take me
Take me in your arms tonight
Hold me
Hold me up so high
And never let me down
Hold me
Hold me up so high
To touch the sky
Just one more time
Take me in your arms tonight
Take me in your arms
Just one more time
Just one more time
Just one more time
 
remember the first time i told you i love you
it was raining hard and you never heard
you sneezed! and i had to say it over
"i said i love you" i said...you didn't say a word
just held your hands to my shining eyes
and i watched as the rain ran through your fingers
held your hands to my shining eyes and smiled as you kissed me...
"if you die" you said "so do i" you said...
and it starts the day you make the sign
"tell me i'm forever yours and you're forever mine...forever mine"
"if you die" you said "so do i" you said...
and it starts the day you cross that line
"swear i will always be yours and you'll always be mine...always be mine"
remember the last time i told you i love you
it was warm and safe in our perfect world
you yawned and i had to say it over
"i said i love you" i said...you didn't say a word
just held your hands to your shining eyes
and i watched as the tears ran through your fingers
held your hands to your shining eyes and cried...
"if you die" you said "so do i" you said...
but it ends the day you see how it is
there is no always forever
just this
just this
"if you die" you said "so do i" you said
but it ends the day you understand
there is no if
just and
there is no if
just and
there is no if.
 
always reminds me of the theme from twin peaks. this song is sad in a really dreamy kind of way...
The Funeral Party
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Two pale figures
Ache in silence
Timeless
In the quiet ground
Side by side
In age and sadness
I watched
And acted wordlessly
As piece by piece
You performed your story
Moving through an unknown past
Dancing at the funeral party
Memories of childrens' dreams
Lie lifeless
Fading
Lifeless
Hand in hand with fear and shadows
Crying at the funeral party
I heard a song
And turned away
As piece by piece
You performed your story
Noiselessly across the floor
Dancing at the funeral party
