Sirensong Lyrics

Lyric discussion by MurderRapeLove 

Cover art for Sirensong lyrics by Cure, The

"Give me your life Or I must fly away And you will never hear this song again" ..again...

That's the most delicious 4 bars of music I ever heard.

Particularly the way it so gracefully resolves as he sings "...again." Diving right back in without so much as a ripple.... it's gone as soon as it appears...

And then after it, you want to hear it again... and you wait for it... and it's coming... and it's coming... and then !!! AAAHHHHHWWWW!!!!!! It's not there this time!!! He ends it literally high and dry!!!

That dirty siren....

And so you're left in suspense until the next time you decide to play the song.

man...I love this song and i never paid much attention to the lyrics because most new Cure stuff is a bit bland lyrics wise....but when I just read this first verse...wow I got such a visual of exactly what he saying...

...basically about surrendering to a beautiful girl...i'm just not sure if its wishful or if he's describing it as undesirable. just picture the girl hypnotizing him and pointing down and down he goes...BRILIIANT!!!

@MurderRapeLove Hmm I think it's a bit of both mike, great song!
