Lyrics

Intro

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

Verse

Factory walls, black and white, shadows on the floor

Ian in the corner, voice cuts like a razor’s draw

Transmission hums, wires crackle, static in the veins

Unknown pleasures pressed in grooves, cold and unrestrained

Verse

Disorder spinning on the turntable, hearts in disarray

Love will tear us, words like knives, tearing night away

Atmosphere thick with smoke and doubt, no escape from sound

Dead souls marching to the beat, marching underground

Pre-chorus

(da da da, da da da)

Can’t feel the warmth, can’t see the light

(da da da, da da da)

Everything fades into the night

Chorus

Joy Division, Joy Division

Ice-cold hearts in repetition

Joy Division, Joy Division

Dancing in the isolation

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

Verse

New dawn fades, grey on grey, echoes in the rain

Isolation’s calling card, written in your name

Heart and soul stripped to the bone, nothing left to give

She’s lost control, we’re lost with her, that’s the way we live

Chorus

Joy Division, Joy Division

Ice-cold hearts in repetition

Joy Division, Joy Division

Dancing in the isolation

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

Chorus

Joy Division, Joy Division

Ice-cold hearts in repetition

Joy Division, Joy Division

Dancing in the isolation

(oh-oh, oh-oh)

Outro

(da da da, da da da)

(oh-oh, oh-oh)
