"He had one of those rare smiles with a quality of eternal reassurance in it, that you may come across four or five times in life.

"I understood why she did it. At that moment I knew why people tagged graffiti on the walls of neat little houses and scratched the paint on new cars and beat up well-tended children. It was only natural to want to destroy something you could never have."

she’s lost control.


And she’s clinging to the nearest passer by,


she’s lost control.


And she gave away the secrets of her past,


and said I’ve lost control again."
- Ian Curtis
