I agree.....their lyrics are haunting but they have a sort of "gritty" 
side to them too.....I think that the Cure has helped me in my times of 
depression too....do you know what song got me hooked to them (and which 
still remains my favorite...rhetorical question of course)? "Just Like 
Heaven" which actually got into mainstream Top 40 stations....kinda 
shocking...but I love the imagery in that song...

"Daylight licked me into shape,
I must have been asleep for days,
And moving lips to breathe her name,
I opened up my eyes.
And found myself alone, alone,
Alone above a raging sea,
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me."

Incredible.....love lost. love mourned but also love cherished and love 
remembered.....all poetically, tragically, beautifully woven together to 
create images soft and blurred yet sharp and distinct (Quite the 
dialectical score....hehehe)

Enough ramblings....

Enjoi,
