The Cure - Fear Of Ghosts [Band Rehearsal -06/88]

Copied!

Like a feeling that I'm down
Deep inside my heart
Like I'm looking out through
Splitting blood red
Windows in my heart
From a higher up than heaven
And a harder down than stone
Shake the fear that always clawing
Pulls me clawing down alone
As I spitting splitting blood red
Breaking windows in my heart
And the past is taunting
Fear of ghosts
Is forcing me apart
And the further I get
From the things that I care about
The less I care about
How much further away I get...

I am lost again
With everything gone
And more alone
Than I have ever been
I expect you to understand
To feel it too
But I know that even if you will
You cannot ever help me
Nor can I
Ever help you

edit bio

The Cure, an English rock band formed in 1976, has had a long and illustrious career filled with ups and downs, experimentation, and ultimately, success. The band was originally comprised of primary songwriter Robert Smith, drummer Lol Tolhurst, and bassist Michael Dempsey, who was later replaced by Simon Gallup.

Before recording their critically acclaimed album Disintegration in 1989, Robert Smith had doubts about the band's ability to create a masterpiece as he approached 30 years of age. The Cure's career up to that point had been marked by a defiance against people's expectations, starting as a punk band before being pushed towards pop for their first album.

Smith's desire to create music that was true to his vision for The Cure led to a period of somber and eclectic sounds, culminating in the success of their 1987 double album Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me. Despite this success, the band continued to be labeled as a pop band, which frustrated Smith even more.

With Disintegration, The Cure finally achieved the masterpiece that Smith had been aiming for, solidifying their place in music history. The band continued to find success with subsequent releases, including their Greatest Hits compilation, their eponymous 2004 comeback record, and 2008's 4:13 Dream.

In 2019, The Cure was rightfully inducted into the Rock n' Roll Hall of Fame, cementing their legacy as one of the most influential and enduring bands in the history of rock music.
