The Associates - It's Better This Way 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 and on and on and on and on The room we sat in before Now closes its door It's trying to say it can't take Any more the screams crack the walls The picture now falls 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 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 As if nothing's happened As if nothing's wrong Truth, truth Stares in our face It closes its book book Book book book booklet It's better this way
