Letra de Canción: As It Is When It Was

I've kept my head against the wall
I've been this way for so long now
You weren't exactly falling over yourself
When last I saw you
Well I always thought
We'd get along like a house on fire
Until you told me that I'd have to go
How can someone like you work that slow.
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see.

I don't feel anything no more
This state of grace is consuming me
I'm not grown up and I am not a boy
I feel no pain and I feel no joy
Well I always thought
We'd get along like a house on fire
In those days when the sun was warm
I ran in the street where I was born.

Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see
Whatever you think of me
You listen hard and I will make you see.

The streets are so empty at this time of night
I'd rather walk on my own than fight
In a world where I'd forgotten you
I found myself forgotten, too
That's the danger of believing books
And all the lies of those thieves and crooks
We sing intellectual songs of love
From a stolen pen to a velvet glove.

Por: New Order


New Order es un grupo inglés de rock, formado en 1980 por los miembros del disuelto grupo Joy Division, tras el suicidio de su vocalista Ian Curtis. La versión temprana de New Order era fuertemente relacionable con Joy Division, pero rápidamente encontraron un sonido distintivo. Su sonido ha sido descrito como una fusión entre la música electrónica y el new wave o post punk. New Order estaba compuesto inicialmente por Bernard Sumner (guitarra, teclados y voz), Peter Hook (bajo) y Stephen Morris (batería). En 1981 se integró Gillian Gilbert (teclados; actualmente esposa de Morris), la cual dejó el grupo en 2001, para cuidar del hijo de ambos, el cual padece una grave enfermedad. En su reemplazo ingresó Phil Cunningham, para hacerse cargo de los teclados y la guitarra.
