Leonard Cohen's "You want it darker" :
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
A million candles burning for the help that never came
You want it darker
Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my lord
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 didn't know I had permission to murder and to maim
You want it darker
Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my lord.
