about

A song dedicated to Ian Curtis to celebrate his 61th birthday. It alludes to a dream a fan made one day. He dreamt that he was at a gig when Joy Division were playing 'Exercise One' - then he suddenly woke up. As he felt sad about this, one of our agents replied it is always better to wake up from a dream where Joy Division were playing than getting asleep into a dream where the gig is cancelled. He felt better then.

lyrics

Tangible Shape



All things that used to seem all right
Blown in a flash of blinding light

Couldn't believe we've been so far
Inside a frame of antique stars

Abandoning the things we know
Seeking anywhere else to go

Can't see limits of raging floods
No use to hide inside the crowd





Numberless minds calling for grace
Can hear the vibe under this place

Interlacing another mesh
Cutting the new flowers so fresh

Here comes a sun we all adore
Late night hearing a great encore

Just can't see why we're feeling so
Maybe they know what's left to do





Another home another day
Maybe too late - hey, comes what may

Something inside says we're all wrong
Another day another song

Crossing iron for the great cause
Fighting devils who need their dose

Could you hear them speak all at once?
You can be sure i'll make it twice
