    Lyrics:
    [Chorus]
    Walk in silence
    Don't walk away, in silence
    [Verse 1]
    See the danger, always danger
    Endless talking, life rebuilding
    Don't walk away
    [Chorus]
    Walk in silence
    Don't turn away, in silence
    [Verse 2]
    Your confusion, my illusion
    Worn like a mask of self-hate, confronts and then dies
    Don't walk away
    [Verse 3]
    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
    [Chorus]
    Don't walk away, in silence
    Don't walk away
    #JoyDivision #Atmosphere

    The post-punk funeral march. An utterly staggering piece of music that never fails to chill. When Ian first utters the word 'walk' at the beginning, we know it's not going to be an easy ride. It kind of encapsulates the sadness and loss surrounding the band and their tragic history. Long live JD and RIP IC x

    Listening to these lyrics reminds me that despite all the romantisation of Ian Curtis and his death I hope NOBODY has the go through the things that he felt, or anybody for that matter. My sister is an epilectic and has recently came out saying she wants to go through assisted suicide once our parents pass, which, fingers crossed, won't be anytime soon. While I support her decision as a grown adult remember to love those who are suffering and be sure to check on them.

    Honestly, I personally think this might be Joy Division's magnum opus. And that's saying a lot since their whole discography is a sight to behold! I think part of what makes Joy Division such an iconic band is the band's short lifespan. They only lasted 4 years (if you don't count New Order)! Yet, they had such a big influence on music and other bands that came after.

    Sometimes socialites and rich people don't understand they are unequal to scholars. Sometimes, people have delusions that they are scholars and intellectuals without hard times with the books. Art, music, mathematics, fiction, and poetry are often ways people attempt expressing this. Kudos if you can survive their onslaught with an attached clarity.
    Hint* One of the best ways people have found to express this inequality is through the atomic explosion that ended World War 2.

    nemojte se sekirati. Ja sam odavno prestala da obraćam pažnju na odsustvo svakog morala i ljudskosti. Sve što sam radila, i dobro i loše, ostaće u pamćenju ljudi. Nadam se da je boljeg bilo više. Ko zna. Ali, ako sam ostavila bar mali dobar trag u ljudima, vredelo je. Želim Vam lep vikend. …

    Sometimes bullying is about unresolved crime. They might target someone to try and pay their debt to society, usually someone just innocent looking enough not to actually make it happen. They find twisted loopholes to constantly check for authority. The weight of society, the church, the media, and the law can put immense pressure on debts not paid.
