Joy Division (Ian Curtis 15:07:1956-18:05:1980)
Shadowplay

To the centre of the city where all roads meet, waiting for you,

To the depths of the ocean where all hopes sank, searching for you,

I was moving through the silence without motion, waiting for you,

I a room with a window in the corner I found truth.

In the shadowplay, acting out your own death, knowing no more,

As the assassins all grouped in four lines, dancing on the floor,

And with cold steel, odor on their bodies made a move to connect,

But I could only stare in disbelief as the crowds all left.

I did everything, everything I wanted to,I let them use you for their own ends,

To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you,

To the centre of the city in the night, waiting for you.




"A storm is coming, Frank says
A storm that will swallow the children
And I will deliver them from the kingdom of pain
I will deliver the children back to their doorsteps
And send the monsters back to the underground
I'll send them back to a place where no-one else can see them
Except for me
Because I am Donnie Darko."
