The Cure - A Short Term Effect Lyrics

Artist: The Cure

Album: Miscellaneous

  • Songwriters: Simon Gallup, Robert James Smith, Laurence Andrew Tolhurst

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

A day without substance, a change of thought
An atmosphere that rots with time
Colors 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
Sideways across the desert a charcoal face bites my hand
Time is sweet, derange and disengage everything

A day without substance, a change of thought
The atmosphere that rots with time
Colors that flicker in water, a short term effect, short term effect

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