Leonard Cohen - The Old Revolution слова песни
I finally broke into the prison,I found my place in the chain.Even damnation is poisoned with rainbows,All the brave young menTheyre waiting now to see a signalWhich some killer will be lighting for pay.Into this furnace I ask you now to venture,You whom I cannot betray.I fought in the old revolutionOn the side of the ghost and the king.Of course I was very youngAnd I thought that we were winning;I cant pretend I still feel very much like singingAs they carry the bodies away.Into this furnace I ask you now to venture...Lately youve started to stutterAs though you had nothing to say.To all of my architects let me be traitor.Now let me say I myself gave the orderTo sleep and to search and to destroy.Into this furnace I ask you now to venture...Yes, you who are broken by power,You who are absent all day,You who are kings for the sake of your childrens story,The hand of your beggar is burdened down with money,The hand of your lover is clay.Into this furnace I ask you now to venture...
