Alone - The Cure
Alone
On Thursday 26th September 2024 The Cure released the single Alone 🎵
Birds fall from the sky, broken voices call us home and youthful dreams are dashed against the transience of life in the band’s first new song in 16 years
(from 🔗 The Guardian)
The lyrics of the song “seem to be based on Dregs, an 1899 work by the Decadent poet Ernest Dowson”.
Alone on Apple Music
Official video on YouTubeThe Cure - Alone (Lyrics)
This is the end
Of every song that we sing
The fire burned out to ash
And the stars
Grown dim with tearsCold and afraid
The ghosts of all that we’ve been
We toast with bitter dregs
To our emptinessAnd the birds
Falling out of our skies
And the words
Falling out of our minds
And here is to love
To all the love
Falling out of our livesHopes and dreams are gone
The end of every songAnd it all stops
We were always sure
That we would never change
And it all stops
We were always sure
That we would stay the same
But it all stops
And we close our eyes
To sleep To dream
A boy and girl
Who dream the world is nothing
But a dream…Where did it go?
Where did it go?
Broken voiced lament
To call us homeThis is the end
Of every song we sing
AloneErnest Dowson - Dregs
The fire is out, and spent the warmth thereof,
(This is the end of every song man sings!)
The golden wine is drunk, the dregs remain,
Bitter as wormwood and as salt as pain;
And health and hope have gone the way of love
Into the drear oblivion of lost things.
Ghosts go along with us until the end;
This was a mistress, this, perhaps, a friend.
With pale, indifferent eyes, we sit and wait
For the dropt curtain and the closing gate:
This is the end of all the songs man sings.📖 more

The Great NHS Heist, a documentary film that I supported on GoFundMe, is being released online on 30th November.
The Great NHS Heist is a powerful account of how the nation’s proudest achievement, the National Health Service, has been fundamentally reshaped and undermined by successive governments in preparation for privatisation. The evidence of the heist is presented with a stark warning of the risks ahead through interviews with health care professionals, patients and experts in England and America.
A trailer is also available on YouTube.
