Failures Lyrics


Don't speak of safe Messiahs
Failure of the modern man
To the center of all life's desires
As a whole, not an also ranLove in a hollow field
Break the image of your father's son
Drawn to an inner feel
He was thought of as the only oneHe no longer denies
All the failures of the modern man
He no longer picks sides
Sees the failures of the modern manWise words and sympathy
Tell the story of our history
New strength gives a real touch
Sense and reason make it all too muchWith a strange fatality
Break the spirits of a lesser man
Some other race can see
In his way he was the only oneHe no longer denies
All the failures of the modern man
No, no, he can't pick sides

Sees the failures of the modern manNow that it's time to decide
In his time he was a total man
Taken from Caesar's side
Kept in silence just to prove who's wrongNo, no, he can't pick sides
All the failures of the modern man
No, no longer denies
All the failures of the modern man

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Joy Division were a post-punk band formed in 1976 in Salford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom. The band dissolved in May 1980 after the suicide of its lead singer, Ian Curtis. Much of their popularity/reputation arguably resulted from frequent playings on air by iconic DJ John Peel, but it is easy now to overlook the impact that the first album, Unknown Pleasures, had on post-punk music at the time, as reference the number of prominent bands that cited this album as an influence.
