You Want It Darker(萊昂納德·科恩演唱歌曲)

歌曲歌詞

If you are the dealer I'm out of the game

If you are the healer it means I'm broken and lame

If thine is the glory then mine must be the shame

You want it darker

We kill the flame

Magnified sanctified be thy holy name

Vilified crucified in the human frame

A million candles burning for the help that never came

You want it darker

Hineni hineni

I'm ready my lord

There's a lover in the story

But the story's still the same

There's a lullaby for suffering

And a paradox to blame

But it's written in the scriptures

And it's not some idle claim

You want it darker

We kill the flame

They're lining up the prisoners

And the guards are taking aim

I struggled with some demons

They were middle class and tame

I didn't know I had permission to murder and to maim

You want it darker

Hineni hineni

I'm ready my lord

Magnified sanctified be thy holy name

Vilified crucified in the human frame

A million candles burning for the love that never came

You want it darker

We kill the flame

If you are the dealer let me out of the game

If you are the healer I'm broken and lame

If thine is the glory mine must be the shame
