Blame Quote by Ian Curtis
““Why must we be put down when we try to get away? Why must we all grow up when we could just play and play? Good things in life are free, can't buy everything, that's true Only one thing wrong with that, what it don't buy I don't use " "A change of speed, a change of style. A change of scene, with no regrets, A chance to watch, admire the distance, Still occupied, though you forget. Different colours, different shades, Over each mistakes were made. I took the blame." "It's just second nature, It's what we've been shown, We're living by your rules””
