The Associates — It's Better This Way lyrics

Lyrics

Mmm you hold out your hand
I draw mine away
I was once in touch now I’ve nothing to say
This time it’s for real
We gave now we steal
No tears for I fear it’s much better this way
We can’t look at each other while distance of time
Has smothered all senses by form or design
If distance is health
Hell what do you say next?
What do you say?
What do you say?
Walk walk walk
It’s better this way
Walk walk walk
We can’t carry on As if nothing’s happened
As if nothing’s wrong
Truth, truth stares in our face
It closes its book
It opens at trust
That’s not where we belong
Walk walk walk
It’s better this way
We can’t carry on on on on on on and on The room we sat in before
Now closes its door
It’s trying to say it can’t take anymore
The screams crack the walls
The pictures now fall
And who’ll be the first to pick them off the…
Love love love on the rocks
Now crumbles like chalk
Your friends were once mine
Now they no longer talk
They all say «hello» but can’t wait to go We must try to run
We can no longer…
Walk walk walk
It’s better this way
We can’t carry on As if nothing’s happened
As if nothing’s wrong
Truth, truth stares in our face
It closes its book
It opens at trust
That’s not where we belong
Walk walk walk
It’s better this way
We can’t carry on As if nothing’s happened
As if nothing’s wrong
(walk walk walk)
Just stares in our face
It closes its book book book book book booklet
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
It’s better this way
