Depeche Mode – Leave In Silence

Official music video ‘Leave In Silence’ by 'Depeche Mode' taken from the album ‘A Broken Frame’ (1982).

Lyrics:

I've told myself so many times before
But this time I think I mean it for sure
We have reached a full stop
Nothing's going to save us from the big drop

Reached our nat­ur­al conclusion
Outlived the illusion
I hate being in these situations
That call for dip­lo­mat­ic relations

If I only knew the answer
Or I thought we had a chance
Or I could stop this
I would stop this thing
From spread­ing like a cancer

What can I say
I don't want to play anymore
What can I say
I'm head­ing for the door
I can't stand this emo­tion­al violence
Leave in silence
Leave in silence

We've been run­ning around in circles all year
Doing this and that and get­ting nowhere
This will be the last time
I think I said that last time

If I only had a potion
Some magic­al lotion
That could stop this
I would stop this
I would set the wheels in motion

What can I say
I don't want to play anymore
What can I say
I'm head­ing for the door
I can't stand this emo­tion­al violence
Leave in silence
Leave in silence

Leave in silence
