Ian Curtis - Leaders Of Men lyrics

[Verse 1] Born from some mother's womb Just like any other room Made a promise for a new life Made a victim out of your life [Bridge 1] When your time's on the door And it drips to the floor And you feel you can touch All the noise is too much And the seeds that are sown Are no longer your own [Verse 2] Just a minor operation To force a final ultimatum Thousand words are spoken loud Reach the dumb to fool the crowd [Bridge 2] When you walk down the street And the sound's not so sweet And you wish you could hide Maybe go for a ride To some peep show arcade Where the future's not made [Verse 3] A nightmare situation Infiltrate imagination Smacks of past Holy wars By the wall with broken laws [Hook] The leaders of men Born out of your frustration The leaders of men Just a strange infatuation The leaders of men Made a promise for a new life [Verse 4] No saviour for our sakes To twist the internees of hate Self induced manipulation To crush all thoughts of ma** salvation
