The Cure – Burn

"Don’t look don’t look", the shadows breathe,
Whispering me away from you,
"Don’t wake at night to watch her sleep,
You know that you will always lose."

This trembling, adored, tousled birdmad girl….

Every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

"Don’t talk of love", the shadows purr,
Murmuring me away from you
"Don’t talk of worlds that never were:
The end is all that’s ever true.
There’s nothing you can ever say;
Nothing you can ever do."

Still every night I burn
Every night I scream your name
Every night I burn
Every night the dream’s the same
Every night I burn.. waiting for my only friend
Every night I burn.. waiting for the world to end

"Just paint your face", the shadows smile,
Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn’t matter how you hide
We’re find you if we’re wanting to.
So slide back down and close your eyes
and sleep a while – you must be tired."

Every night I burn
Every night I call your name
Every night I burn
Every night I fall again

Every night I burn
Scream the animal screams
Every night I burn
Dream the crow black dream

(repeat)

Dream the crow black dream.
