Joy Division - The Drawback (All Of This For You) Lyrics






Seen the troubles and the evils of this world
I've seen the stretches between godliness and sin
I've had the promise and confessions of true faith
And the hypocrisy that always lies within
And they left it for you - all of this for you -

I've seen the products and the other world of waste
I've seen the colour of corruption deep within
I've seen them lose themselves in dignity and taste
To see in black and white and through to black again
And they left it for you - all of this for you -

And they left it for you - all of this for you
And they left it for you - everything for you
I've seen the troubles and the evils of this world
I've seen the ones who can succeed but always lose
I've seen what's left of poor technology and work
And watched them dying as they leave their ship of fools
And they left it for you - all of this for you -

    I've seen the troubles and the evils of this world
    I've seen the stretches between godliness and sin
    I've had the promise and confessions of true faith
    and the hypocrisy that always lies within
    and they left it for you, all of this for you x2
    I've seen the products and the other world of waste
    I've seen the colour of corruption deep within
    I've seen them loose themselves in dignity and taste
    to see in black and white and through to black again
    and they left it for you, all of this for you x2
    and they left it for you, everything for you
    I've seen the troubles and the evils of this world
    I've seen the ones who can succeed but always lose
    I've seen whats left of poor technology and work
    and watched them dying as they leave their ship of fools
    and they left it for you, all of this for you x2

    How, in all that is holy, did this not make it onto unknown pleasures?

    R.... F....

    This would not have fit with the rest of the album at all. I could've seen this sounding good on the "Ideal For Living" EP though.

    R.... F....

    are you serious this is nothing close to the songs on pleasures

    R.... F....

    because it's totally wrong for the album? i like this too, but it belongs on this album, not unknown pleasures.

    R.... F....

    this is more ubeat sounding, amazing track regardless

    R.... F....

    @plasticweapon True, on point, however I've always wished the version of 'She's Lost Control' that was on the 'Substance' compilation was on 'Unknown Pleasures' [although I do like the version on the album] the Substance version is mental' those instrumental breaks (with the bass guitar at the fore) but I know they were going for, (after the fast start with Disorder) then building it back up, a slow burn, as every track after New Dawn Fades' builds up the tempo till the last track

  12. C.... F....

    Put at 0.5x speed, very good.

    C.... F....

    Errrr I was gonna say ya crazy? But I can actually understand the lyrics now.. so I'm probably gonna be caught up with dinosaur jr at this speed for the next 20 yrs..

    C.... F....

    sounds better at 0.75x imo

  13. D.... C....

    This song is fucken rad. But the other ones like Transmission and Interzone were better as JD

    D.... C....

    Transmission and Interzone from substance?

    D.... C....

    +pascual sandoval Interzone from Unknown Pleasures and the other one yeah... IMO at least... My preference lol

    D.... C....

    I really don't like what JD did to transmission in substance it sounds more like a New Order song.

  14. K.... D....

    What a treat!

  15. S.... G....

    XXX, not poseurs.

  16. F.... B....

    it(s my youngness happy years 

  17. l.... ....

    I'll take this over JD any day.

  18. p.... ....
