Letra de
Love Will Tear Us Apart

Love Will Tear Us Apart foi escrita pelos membros da banda Joy Division, inspirada pela turbulenta relação amorosa de Ian Curtis com sua esposa, Deborah Curtis, juntamente com seu quadro de saúde em deterioração e sua luta contra a epilepsia. A letra reflete o sentimento de descontentamento e o distanciamento emocional de Curtis em relação à sua vida, sendo uma expressão de seu sofrimento pessoal e das dificuldades que enfrentava.

When routine bites hard
And ambitions are low
And resentment rides high
But emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways
Taking different roads

Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed
Our respect run so dry
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives

And love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again


Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can't function no more

When love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
