Also, i think he says "still cursed by one unending vision" not "cursed the one." I also don't really hear him say "alone and dead." It sounds more to me like he's saying "alone, undone" again. I always heard the final line as "alone, under." (But that could just be that I was hoping that this song was at least somewhat an extension of Oceanic in which love was liquid, and being taken under is the most sublime of possibilities. The title "Low Tide" contributed to this aquatic notion.)
I don't know give it a listen. but the would gave these always gave the song a completely different feel and meaning for me.
