The Cure - Disintegration: Wikipedia Album Entry

Disintegration is a triumph of the Cure's 20+ year career. Lauded by many as the Cure's best, the album brought the Cure to #2 in the American Billboard Top 100 music charts with Lovesong. Its rich, deep, moody character defined the Cure as a goth band for ages to come, even though they can span from disco to post punk to pop to classic rock. Robert Smith's smeared lipstick and humongous hair was different than most of the stuff out there in 1989 (Girl, You Know It's True anyone?) and this album helped to shape a generation of eyeliner-wearing teens and tweens.

The Cure - Disintegration Lyrics

The Cure - Pictures Of You Lyrics

I've been looking so long at these pictures of you
That I almost believe that they're real
I've been living so long with my pictures of you
That I almost believe that the pictures are all I can feel

More The Cure - Pictures Of You Lyrics

The Cure - Love Song Lyrics

Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am home again
Whenever I'm alone with you
You make me feel like I am whole again

More The Cure - Love Song Lyrics

The Cure - Closedown Lyrics

I'm running out of time
I'm out of step and closing down
And never sleep for wanting hours
The empty hours of greed

More The Cure - Closedown Lyrics

The Cure - Disintegration Lyrics

Oh I miss the kiss of treachery
The shameless kiss of vanity
The soft and the black and the velvety
Up tight against the side of me

More The Cure - Disintegration Lyrics

The Cure - Homesick Lyrics

Hey, just one more and I'll walk away all
The everything you won turns to nothing today
I forget how to move when my mouth is this
Dry and my eyes are bursting hearts in a blood

More The Cure - Homesick Lyrics

The Cure - Last Dance Lyrics

I'm so glad you came
I'm so glad you remembered
To see how we're ending
Our last dance together

More The Cure - Last Dance Lyrics

The Cure - Fascination Street Lyrics

Oh it's opening time down on Fascination Street
So let's cut the conversation and get out for a bit
Because I feel it all fading and paling and I'm begging
To drag you down with me to kick the last nail in

More The Cure - Fascination Street Lyrics

The Cure - Plainsong Lyrics

"I think it's dark and it looks like it's rain", you said
"And the wind is blowing like it's the end of the world", you said
"And it's so cold, it's like the cold if you were dead"
And you smiled for a second

More The Cure - Plainsong Lyrics

The Cure - Prayers For Rain Lyrics

You shatter me your grip on me a hold on me so dull it kills
You stifle me infectious sense of hopelessness and prayers for rain
I suffocate I breathe in dirt and nowhere shines but desolate
And drab the hours all spent on killing time again all waiting for the rain

More The Cure - Prayers For Rain Lyrics

The Cure - Untitled Lyrics

Hopelessly drift in the eyes of the ghost again
Down on my knees and my hands in the air again
Pushing my face in the memory of you again
But I never know if it's real

More The Cure - Untitled Lyrics

The Cure - The Same Deep Water As You Lyrics

Kiss me goodbye pushing out before I sleep
Can't you see I try swimming the same deep water as you is hard
The shallow drowned lose less than we
You breathe the strangest twist upon your lips

More The Cure - The Same Deep Water As You Lyrics

The Cure - Lullaby Lyrics

On candy stripe legs the Spiderman comes
Softly through the shadow of the evenin' sun
Stealin' past the windows of the blissfully dead
Looking for the victim shivering in bed
