Untitled
Hopelessly drift
In the eyes of the ghost again
Down on my knees
And my hands in the air again
Pushing my face in the memory of you again
But I never know if it's real
Never know how I wanted to feel
Never quite said what Iwanted to say to you
Never quite managed the words to explain to you
Never quite knew how to make them believable
And now the time has gone
Another time undone
Hopelessly fighting the devil
Futility
Feeling the moster
Climb deeper inside of me
Feeling him gnawing my heart away
Hungrily
I'll never lose this pain
Never dream of you again

Robert
on 'Untitled'...
"a
hopeful song in a hopeless world." "'Hoplessly fighting the devil
futility' -- that really is the key line in the record. Knowing that everything's
futile but still fighting, still raging against the dying of the light -
that's what motivates me all the time." (Searching For the Cure Rolling
Stone 1989 Michael Azerrad)
"I
suppose songs like 'Closedown'' and 'Untitled' take up that thread, going
back to the old things about age, sadness and disintegration itself. They
give the record a bleaker mood overall."
(Melody Maker 6th May 1989) |
