The Figurehead Lyrics - Pornography - The Cure

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 

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 

You mean nothing 

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 

I can never say no to anyone but you 

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 

Despair of time 

I will never be clean again 

Touched her eyes 

Pressed my stained face 

I will never be clean again 

Touched her eyes 

Pressed my stained face 

I will never be clean again 

I will never be clean again 

I will never be clean again 

I will never be clean again
