Joy Division – Passover Lyrics  Share

From Joy Division's album: Closer

This is a crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I^,d kept.
Doubting, unsettling and turning around,
Wondering what will come next.
Is this the role that you wanted to live?
I was foolish to ask for so much.
Without the protection and infancy^,s guard,
It all falls apart at first touch.

Watching the reel as it comes to a close,
Brutally taking its 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.
[ Passover lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/j/joy-division/passover/ ]

Moving along in our God given ways,
Safety is sat by the fire,
Sanctuary from these feverish smiles,
Left with a mark on the door,
Is this the gift that I wanted to give?
Forgive and forget^,s what they teach,
Or pass through the deserts and wastelands once more,
And watch as they drop by the beach.

This is the crisis I knew had to come,
Destroying the balance I^,d kept,
Turning around to the next set of lives,
Wondering what will come next.
