Leave in Silence [Single Version]

[Verse 1: Dave Gahan]
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

[Verse 2: Dave Gahan]
Reached our natural conclusion
Outlived the illusion
I hate being in these situations
That call for diplomatic relations

[Pre-Chorus 1: Dave Gahan]
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

[Chorus: Dave Gahan, Andrew Fletcher & Martin L. Gore]
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

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 3: Dave Gahan]
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

[Interlude]

[Pre-Chorus 2: Dave Gahan]
If I only had a potion
Some magical lotion
That could stop this
I would stop this
I would set the wheels in motion

[Chorus: Dave Gahan, Andrew Fletcher & Martin L. Gore]
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

[Outro: Dave Gahan]
Leave in silence
Leave in silence
Leave in silence
Leave in silence
Leave in silence
