Thanks to the miracle that is the interweb, I now know that Alkaline Trio’s “Help Me” is actually about Ian Curtis of Joy Division. Thanks, ‘Org. Oh, and those jerks that swiped Curtis’ grave marker are turds.

Here you’ll find me in between,
Heaven and hell my dear,
Where nothing’s what it seems,
It’s just as well I fear I’m giving you the creeps,
And a farewell kiss to go into the unknown.

Saw you standing there,
Outside the music hall,
You come out for some air,
A certain curtain call and everyone just stared,
When you took the stage that night,
Something’s not right.

You’re up there,
Took the stairs to the stars all alone,
You left all the lights burning but nobody’s home,
I believe they deceived your tuneful heart too long.
