The Future (Live)

[00:00.36] The Future(Live) - Leonard Cohen
[00:16.03]Give me back my broken night
[00:18.98]My secret room my secret life
[00:21.83]It's lonely here
[00:24.42]There's no one left to torture
[00:29.28]Give me absolute control
[00:32.61]Over every living soul
[00:35.82]And lie beside me baby
[00:38.48]That's an order
[00:42.56]Give me crack and anal sex
[00:45.71]Take the only tree that's left
[00:49.12]And stuff it up the hole
[00:52.06]In your culture
[00:56.07]Give back the berlin wall
[00:59.40]Give me stalin and st paul
[01:02.27]I've seen the future brother
[01:05.52]It is murder
[01:09.45]Things are going to slide in all directions
[01:15.43]Won't be nothing
[01:17.00]Won't be nothing
[01:18.78]You can measure anymore
[01:22.34]The blizzard of the world
[01:26.70]Has crossed the threshold
[01:28.70]And it has overturned
[01:30.85]The order of the soul
[01:35.53]When they said repent
[01:37.59]Repent repent repent repent
[01:42.09]I wonder what they meant
[01:45.55]When they said repent
[01:47.53]Repent repent repent repent
[01:52.11]I wonder what they meant
[01:55.72]When they said repent
[01:57.65]Repent repent repent repent
[02:09.91]You don't know me from the wind
[02:12.45]You never will you never did
[02:16.31]I'm the little jew
[02:18.33]Who wrote the bible
[02:23.13]I've seen nations rise and fall
[02:26.22]I've heard their stories heard them all
[02:30.09]But loves the only engine of survival
[02:36.78]Your servant here he has been told
[02:40.36]To say it clear to say it cold
[02:43.65]It's over it ain't going
[02:46.72]Any further
[02:50.31]And now the wheels of heaven stop
[02:53.40]You feel the devils riding crop
[02:57.00]Get ready for the future
[03:00.18]It is murder
[03:04.04]Things are going to slide slide in all directions
[03:10.23]Won't be nothing
[03:11.54]Won't be nothing
[03:13.38]You can measure anymore
[03:17.19]The blizzard the blizzard of the world
[03:21.94]Has crossed the threshold and it has overturned
[03:24.58]The order of the soul
[03:30.38]When they said repent repent repent repent repent
[03:36.87]I wonder what they meant
[03:40.33]When they said repent repent repent repent repent
[03:46.71]I wonder what they meant
[03:50.62]When they said repent repent repent repent repent
[04:03.82]There'll be the breaking of the ancient
[04:07.44]Western code
[04:10.49]Your private life will suddenly explode
[04:17.16]There'll phantoms
[04:19.54]There'll be fires in the road
[04:23.88]And the white man dancing
[04:30.69]You'll see the woman
[04:33.14]Hanging upside down
[04:38.22]Her features covered by her fallen gown
[04:44.22]And all the lousy little poets
[04:47.65]Coming round
[04:49.57]Trying to sound like charlie manson
[05:09.07]Give me back the berlin wall
[05:12.21]Give me stalin and st paul
[05:15.44]Give me love
[05:17.84]Give me christ
[05:22.27]Or give me hiroshima
[05:23.38]Destroy another fetus now
[05:25.73]We don't like children anyhow
[05:28.96]I've seen the future baby
[05:32.43]It is murder
[05:36.00]Things are going to slide slide in all directions
[05:42.09]Won't be nothing
[05:43.47]Won't be nothing
[05:45.27]You can measure anymore
[05:49.13]The blizzard the blizzard of the world
[05:53.14]Has crossed the threshold and it has overturned
[05:58.92]The order of the soul
[06:02.22]When they said repent repent repent repent repent
[06:08.52]I wonder what they meant
