The Figurehead
The Cure
[Verse 1]
Sharp and open, leave me alone
And sleeping less every night
As the days become heavier and weighted
Waiting in the cold light
A noise, a scream tears my clothes as the figurines tighten
With spiders inside them
And dust on the lips of a vision of hell
I laughed in the mirror for the first time in a year

[Verse 2]
A hundred other words blind me with your purity
Like an old painted doll in the throes of dance
I think about tomorrow, please let me sleep
As I slip down the window, freshly squashed fly

[Refrain]
You mean nothing
You mean nothing

[Verse 3]
I can lose myself in Chinese art and American girls
All the time, lose me in the dark, please do it right
Run into the night, I will lose myself tomorrow
Crimson pain, my heart explodes
My memory in a fire, and someone will listen
At least for a short while
[Bridge]
(I can never say no)
I can never say no to anyone but you

[Verse 4]
Too many secrets, too many lies
Writhing with hatred
Too many secrets, please make it good tonight
But the same image haunts me, in sequence, in despair of time

[Chorus]
I will never be clean again
I touched her eyes, pressed my stained face
I will never be clean again

[Outro]
Touched her eyes, press my stained face
I will never be clean again
I will never be clean again
I will never be clean again
