Lyrics for The Drowning Man by Cure:
| | | Artist: | Cure |
| | Album: | Faith (1981 | | Track: | The Drowning Man | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 195 | | | | Lyrics: | She stands twelve feet above the flood
She stares
Alone
Across the
water
The loneliness grows and slowly
Fills her frozen body
Sliding
downwards
One by one her senses die
The memories fade
And leave her
eyes
Still seeing worlds that never were
And one by one the bright birds leave
her...
Starting at the violent sound
She tries to turn
But
final
Noiseless
Slips and strikes her soft dark head
The water bows
Receives
her
And drowns her at its ease...
I would have left the world all
bleeding
Could I only help you love
The fleeting shapes
So many years ago
So
young and beautiful and brave
Everything was true
It couldn't be a story...
I
wish it was all true
I wish it couldn't be a story
The words all left
me
Lifeless
Hoping
Breathing like the drowning man
Oh Fucshia!
You
leave me
Breathing like the drowning man
Breathing like the drowning man | | | |
