bird-madgirl: “The biggest frustration is: not being able to feel strong emotions anymore. You get older and you lose the ability to really get excited for valuable stuff. Cynicism enters your world and you get numb. Making music is like therapy then: doing something that makes you feel more real. As a little child, I could stare for hours at stuff; at the way an acorn nut fits perfectly in a nutshell, at toys. Total fascination. That has disappeared. I also lose the lust to keep learning. Why should I learn a foreign language when I’m 30? Why bother? That feeling paralyses you. Eventually everything has its roots in a more basic frustration: the fact I don’t have a belief. I had to accept the fact that I would never be a religious person. “Faith” (thee album) was full of religious doubt, but we’re 8 years further now and I still feel the gaping emptiness. And now I stop whining, cause besides that we’re having so much fun. If I wouldn’t be a professional musician, I would still grab my guitar and microphone in my spare time. I still don’t consider it as a job. Most of the lyrics on Disintegration are dated last summer when I felt extremely miserable. They describe moments and I’m glad that I got rid of them by writing about it. Singing is good for my mental health.” - Robert Smith 1989 -- source link
