Cut by Cure If only you'd never speak to me The way that you do If only you'd never speak like that It's like listening to A breaking heart A falling sky Fire go out and friendship die I wish you felt the way that I still do The way that I still do If only you'd never look at me The way that you do If only you'd never look like that When I look at you I see face like stone Eyes of ice Mouth so sweetly telling lies I wish you felt the way that I still do The way that I still do But you don't You don't feel anymore You don't care anymore It's all gone If only you'd never pull from me The way that you do If only you'd never pull like that When I'm with you I feel hopeless hands helplessly Pulling you back close to me I wish you felt the way that I still do The way that I still do If only you'd ever speak speak to me The way you once did Look at me the way you once did Pull to me the way you once did But you don't You don't feel anymore You don't care anymore It's all gone It's all gone |

Cure - Cut
I know, this is not technically about religion; it's a breakup song. But, sometime after I left the religion of my youth, I was listening to this song and it became about the loss of my relationship to what I once thought was a system of belief that brought me to the truth. I realized that I still cared about what the truth was, but that the church I had been raised in did not and never had- "When I look at you, I see face like stone, Eyes of ice, Mouth so sweetly telling lies, I wish you felt the way that I still do, But you don't, You don't feel anymore, It's all gone"
