The Stranger by Albert Camus (Connection to Killing An Arab - The Cure)

"To stay or to go, it amounted to the same thing. A minute later I turned back toward the beach and started walking" (Pg. 57, Paragraph 1, 2nd to last sentence).

"I can turn
And walk away
Or I can fire the gun
Staring at the sky
Staring at the sun
Whichever I chose
It amounts to the same
Absolutely nothing" (Killing An Arab - The Cure).

Robert Smith mentioned that he based this song on Camus' book.
