"All my lyrics are open to interpretation by the individual and imply many different meanings, therefore their relevance is purely subjective." - Ian Curtis
That's a very interesting quote from Curtis, it's almost as if he knew that even 30 years later we'd still be enthralled and fascinated by the near-endless depth to his lyrical standard. It doesn't just remain relavent to Joy Division though - it's a solid argument that can apply to just about all music (aside from pop).

I know many people don't really care about the lyrics, but i do. Ian is my favorite songwriter, and i still think like the very first time i ever read a Joy Division lric (which was this very same song) that if Ian had become a poet or a writer i do believe he had the talent enough to become a great author. LOL, i used to think he could have won the Nobel had he become a writer!.

Golliwogg APPROVES of this song.

The riff in this song is the best i've ever heard. in fact, it's on a whole other plane by itself. no other riff made more of the point, much less as powerfully....

Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
Brutally taking it's time,
People who change for no reason at all,
It's happening all of the time.
Can I go on with this train of events?
Disturbing and purging my mind,
Back out of my duties, when all's said and done,
I know that I'll lose every time.
i cant explain my feelings now ..
