Gahan comes in close to the track, and the first words make speech sound dangerous: “Words like violence.”
The chorus opens without the beat getting frantic; the want rises in the voice, but the groove stays smooth.
When he says words are unnecessary, the arrangement doesn't argue with him. It just keeps repeating, clean and controlled.
The second verse uses the same steady route for vows and breakage; nothing softens around the voice.
“Words are meaningless” lands inside that polished surface, and the line feels worn down rather than shouted.
The chorus returns quickly, with the same intimate center and the same even electronic footing under it.
