It's Better This Way

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
