The Dreadnoughts - Leonard Cohen lyrics

[The Dreadnoughts - Leonard Cohen lyrics]

Well you're living in disgrace, now heaven's
In your face, turn to, turn to
When you're down to fucking walking
Your hands are in your pocket, turn to
Turn to

And your life is empty and black
For all of those little things you lack!

The only way to find what's going
Through your mind, turn to, turn to
And can't be somebody else, now
Tell about yourself, turn to, turn to

But the truth hangs in the air, like a knife
You only get one shot at this life!

Gotta find a reason, gotta find a way
Coming from the dark side
Begging me to stray
Real Irish whiskey's coming out to play


Oh, no, and so I choose, and it's not you!

And the ones you've left behind, end up
Tired, end up blind, turn to, turn to
Well, they're living on the streets
With their shadows on their feet, turn to
Turn to

Ah, they drink, and they screw
And they fight
And they sleep on the city streets at night!

Gotta find a reason, gotta find a way
Coming from the dark side
Begging me to stray
Real Irish whiskey's coming out to play
Oh, no, and so I choose, and it's not you!

1, 2, 3, 4!

In a cold winter haze spent 17 days
Getting drunk at the Drake Motel
The light is glowing softly now
I'll see you down in hell
Never one for restraint, was never a saint
But you're nothing but a ghost in a shell
The light is glowing softly now
I'll see you down in hell!

Ah, you fade like ashes in a night
And you're gone before the morning light!

Gotta find a reason, gotta find a way
Coming from the dark side
Begging me to stray
Real Irish whiskey's coming out to play
Oh, no, and so I choose, and it's not you!
