Lyrics

Walk in silence
Don't walk away, in silence
See the danger, always danger
Endless talking, life rebuilding
Don't walk away
Walk in silence
Don't turn away, in silence
Your confusion, my illusion
Worn like a mask of self-hate, confronts and then dies
Don't walk away
People like you find it easy
Naked to see, walking on air
Hunting by the rivers, through the streets, every corner
Abandoned too soon, set down with due care
Don't walk away, in silence
Don't walk away
Written by: Bernard Sumner, Ian Curtis, Peter Hook, Stephen Morris
