Where the Birds Always Sing by The Cure Lyrics
[Pre-Chorus]
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives, the others die
And you always want a reason why
[Chorus]
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young, so much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
[Verse 1]
It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough, you want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing
Always sing
[Pre-Chorus]
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives, the others die
And you always want a reason why
[Chorus]
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young, so much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
[Verse 2]
It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough and it never is
You always want so much more than this
An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough, you want everything
Another world where the birds always sing
Another world where the sun always shines
Another world where nothing ever dies
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives, the others die
And you always want a reason why
[Chorus]
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young, so much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
[Verse 1]
It doesn't speak a plan or any secret thing
No unseen sign or untold truth in anything
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough, you want everything
Another world where the sun always shines
And the birds always sing
Always sing
[Pre-Chorus]
The world is neither fair nor unfair
The idea is just a way for us to understand
But the world is neither fair nor unfair
So one survives, the others die
And you always want a reason why
[Chorus]
But the world is neither just nor unjust
It's just us trying to feel that there's some sense in it
No, the world is neither just nor unjust
And though going young, so much undone
Is a tragedy for everyone
[Verse 2]
It doesn't mean there has to be a way of things
No special sense that hidden hands are pulling strings
But living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough and it never is
You always want so much more than this
An endless sense of soul and an eternity of love
A sweet mother down below and a just father above
For living on in others, in memories and dreams
Is not enough, you want everything
Another world where the birds always sing
Another world where the sun always shines
Another world where nothing ever dies
