Joy
Division Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

With a mirror in your hand
Lay down on your bed
Throw your legs in the air
And see what's around the bend
Take a good long look
At the buried treasure
There between your cheeks
A hidden source of pleasure
It's an orifice for elimination
It's an orifice for exploration
Ring of joy, ring of joy
A new discovery to enjoy
Any girl or any boy
Can exercise their ring of joy
"Ooh, but it's so dirty!"
Well, not if you keep it clean
Dicks have a good reputation
Even though they're used to pee
Learn to relax those muscles
With practice they'll open wide
Hit your pleasure center
From the other side
It's and orifice for elimination
It's an orifice for stimulation
Ring of joy, ring of joy
A tight muscle to employ
Any girl or any boy
Can break through on that ring of joy
Did I mention latex?
'Cause you know it's a must
Gotta protect yourself
Even with somebody you trust
It's a natural feeling
Don't let anyone tell you it's not
You don't have to be queer
But it helps a lot
It's an orifice for liberation
It's an orifice for celebration
Ring of joy, ring of joy
Erotic thrill, sexual toy




A boy inside another boy
Go all the way with your ring of joy

When routine bites hard and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives
But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Do you cry out in your sleep, all my failings exposed?
There's a taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold
Just that something so good, just can't function no more
But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

[Verse 1]
When routine bites hard and ambitions are low
And resentment rides high, but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways, taking different roads

[Chorus]
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

[Verse 2]
Why is the bedroom so cold? You've turned away on your side
Is my timing that flawed? Our respect runs so dry
Yet there's still this appeal that we've kept through our lives

[Chorus]
But love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
You cry out in your sleep, all my failings exposed
There's a taste in my mouth as desperation takes hold
Just that something so good, just can't function no more

[Chorus]
Then love, love will tear us apart again
Love, love will tear us apart again
Then love, love will tear it apart again
Love, love will tear it apart again

When Keanu Reeves' said that this was the one song he could listen to for the rest of his life, I had to re-visit it. Haven't heard this in such a long time.

My younger brother committed suicide last weekend by overdosing on something. He was found with headphones on, presumably listening to something. This is his youtube account. He made a playlist containing 6 songs that was edited the day he passed. This is one of the 6 songs. With the method he used, he was dead after about 30 minutes, probably unconscious around 12 minutes. I like to think that it was peaceful for him with his music on. I love you Darius, I'll miss you everyday for the rest of my life

@MrPickles666

My condolences..

@haxan_3567

Sorry for you loss. What were the other 5 if you don't mind answering?

@tarad6467

Sending love and healing vibes your way. Grief of that nature never really goes away, but it gets easier. 💛
