T6 by The Cure on wish Deluxe Album Lyrics (unofficial)


As Europe enjoyed The Cure’s Songs for a Lost World Tour, Robert Smith announced the forthcoming Wish 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition album. It includes 24 previously unreleased tracks. And all of Curedom did a little happy dance. Robert Smith admitted that he had difficulty with the words (poetry), resulting in many of the new tracks being instrumentals. This struck me as unfortunate for someone I believe to be one of the best living poets, of the one I have read. The words of “Lovesong,” from Disintegration are beautiful in their simplicity and immensely compelling. “Plainsong,” from the same album, is a sonnet by Robert Smith to his wife, Mary. Here are my thoughts on “Plainsong.” https://disintegrationnation-cureblog.blogspot.com/2022/01/poetry-by-robert-smith-of-cure-band.html


Wish 30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition dropped on November 25, 2022. It has several instrumentals and one is “T6.” We will have to wait for Robert Smith to tell whether it means Track 6, which I assume it does. Below is a poem (unauthorized) I wrote to accompany the music of “T6” by The Cure.

 

T6


Wednesday is the wickedest of days.

Half way there, half way gone,

Just like you.


I knew it would always end.

You live down the block,

And are a thousand miles away now.


I need something to believe in,

A bit to believe in,

Since I no longer believe in your kiss.
