Insight Lyrics

Artist: Joy Division
Album: Unknown Pleasures

Guess you dreams always end.
They don't rise up, just descend,
But I don't care anymore,
I've lost the will to want more,
I'm not afraid not at all,
I watch them all as they fall,
But I remember when we were young.

Those with habits of waste,
Their sense of style and good taste,
Of making sure you were right,
Hey don't you know you were right?
I'm not afraid anymore,
I keep my eyes on the door,
But I remember....

Tears of sadness for you,
More upheaval for you,
Reflects a moment in time,
A special moment in time,
Yeah we wasted our time,
We didn't really have time,
But we remember when we were young.

And all God's angels beware,
And all you judges beware,
Sons of chance, take good care,
For all the people not there,
I'm not afraid anymore,
I'm not afraid anymore,
I'm not afraid anymore,
Oh, I'm not afraid anymore.

Brilliant song, actually most of their songs are really good, and the lyrics are just amazing, though depressing but they are good......

Ian was depressed and wrote most of lyrics about himself. After his death, the band went back and read his lyrics and realized this.

yeah it is depressing lyrics from a depressed man who let it get the best of him that is why it is so great because he really felt it all.

Universal lyrics. Every single line could be uttered to a T by Mark McGwire.

john peel session, ...pulses in my soul, each beat takes its toll. Slip off my bed, slips off my mask, inevitable comes ah, at last.
