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 back
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

COLD
|
SCARRED
YOUR BACK WAS TURNED
CURLED LIKE AN EMBRYO
TAKE ANOTHER FACE
YOU WILL BE KISSED AGAIN
I WAS COLD AS I MOUTHED THE WORDS
AND CRAWLED ACROSS THE MIRROR
I WAIT
AWAIT THE NEXT BREATH
YOUR NAME
LIKE ICE INTO MY HEART
A SHALLOW GRAVE
A MONUMENT TO THE RUINED AGE
ICE IN MY EYES
AND EYES LIKE ICE DON'T MOVE
SCREAMING AT THE MOON
ANOTHER PASTIME
YOUR NAME
LIKE ICE INTO MY HEART
EVERYTING AS COLD AS LIFE
CAN NO ONE SAVE YOU?
EVERYTHING
AS COLD AS SILENCE
AND YOU WILL NEVER SAY A WORD
YOUR NAME
LIKE ICE INTO MY HEART
(MY BEST FRIEND ONCE WROTE THIS SONG IN HUGE LETTERS IN A BATHROOM IN SOME DISMAL BACKWATER WHERE PEOPLE MARRY THEIR COUSINS)

I used to love the Cure and someone really burned me out on them(I know, amazing isn't it?). After a rest of a few years I'm staring to listen again. The older, more morose stuff is the best. My friends and I, when we were lots younger, came up with this: Take any average, normal person, lock them up in a cell with only a razor blade and pipe in Pornagraphy 24/7 and eventually they would go insane and kill themselves.
