Joy Division – The Drawback lyrics
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,
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 all for you -
All of this 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.
