The Cure Lyrics
"A Short Term Effect [live]"

(This is called A Short Term Effect)

Movement, no movement
Just a falling bird
Cold as it hits the bleeding ground
He lived and died, catch sight
Cover me with earth
Draped in black
Static white sound

Day without substance
A change of thought
The atmosphere rots with time
Colours that flicker in water
A short term effect

Scream as she tries to push him over
Helpless and sick
With teeth of madness
Jump jump dance and sing
Silence across the desert
Charcoal face bites my hand
Time is sweet
Derange and disengage everything

Day without substance
A change of thought
The atmosphere rots with time
Colours that flicker in water
A short term effect

Echo and a stranger's hand
A short term effect
An echo and a stranger's hand
A short term effect
