Cure
The Wild Colonials Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't you need somebody to claim?
All my life, been trying to avoid you
'Cause loneliness is something I dream about
Unhappiness my fate
Can you give me a cure?
Come on, give me a cure.
You gotta give me a cure.
Come on, give me a cure.
I'm so tired of livin' the same old same,
Longing for an act of faith.
In your eyes, I see a different way.
Nobody in this blue world has the answer
Just tell me that you're shy
give me, give me a cure
Come on give me a cure
All I need is a cure
You gotta give me a cure
Come on give me a cure
All I need is a cure
Come on give me a cure
All I need is a cure...
Come on give me a cure
You gotta give me a cure
All I need is a cure
The Wild Colonials' song Cure is a deeply emotional song about loneliness, longing, and the need for connection. The first stanza asks the listener, "Don't you want somebody to lean on? Don't you need somebody to claim?" suggesting that everyone has a fundamental need for companionship and support. However, the next line "All my life, been trying to avoid you" reveals the singer's reluctance to let people in, even though they feel lonely and unhappy.
In the chorus, the singer begs for a "cure," something that will alleviate their inner turmoil and provide a sense of purpose and happiness. The repetition of the plea for a cure highlights how profound and desperate the singer's need is. The phrase "All I need is a cure" echoes throughout the song, underscoring the intensity of the singer's pain and isolation.
The final stanza suggests that the singer has found some hope in the eyes of the person they are addressing. The line "In your eyes, I see a different way" hints that the singer has finally found someone who understands them and can provide comfort. Nevertheless, the chorus's repetition reminds the listener that the need for a cure is still acute and pressing. The Wild Colonials' Cure is a powerful and moving tribute to the essential human need for connection and understanding.
