| Joy Division – A Means To An End Lyrics | 13 years ago |
|
To me, this song is about the natural, inevitable and futile conclusion of a love, marriage or any serious relationship. The pair start out happy ("stood side by side") and even felt quite invincible together through their collective joy "our vision touched the sky"; but ultimately, their relationship is just a means to an end - it just exists to end, as gloomy as such a thought is. Their love or companionship is destined to become broken, the pair growing alienated ("foreign soil"), and die, or merely dissolve into nothingness - futile form the start as the means where always destined to end, or 'die' ("where dogs and vultures eat"). Just thoughts of a huge JD fan :) |
