Youcan'tseeme


The Cure. Lord.

Here.

"Show me how you do that trick...
The one that makes me scream" she said,
"The one that makes me laugh" she said,
And threw her arms around my neck.
"Show me how you do it and I promise you,
I promise that I'll run away with you...
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge,
I kissed her face and kissed her head,
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow.
"Why are you so far away?" she said,
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you?
That I'm in love with you?"

You...
Soft and only.
You...
Lost and lonely.
You...
Strange as angels.


Dancing in the deepest oceans,
Twisting in the water;
You're just like a dream...

Daylight licked me into shape.
I must have been asleep for days,
And moving lips to breathe her name,
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone...

Alone.
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved

And drowned her deep inside of me.

You...
Soft and only.
You...
Lost and lonely.
You...

Just like heaven.

There.

Read between the lines. Do you know me well enough? A product of too-much-thought; for my muse, maybe. God, I love that AFI covered this beautiful piece of Robert-Smith-genius. I love this song. I adore it. In Davey's tenor/sometimesfalsetto voice...it's heart-rending. It's incredible. I love it.

Someone needs to hang me. String me up, babies. String me up. I asked first. Remember.

Into the furnace of darkness..

watch the inferno burn..

and as I fall unto decay

and ashes mark my living

I call out
