You Want It Darker - Leonard Cohen

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen


Lyrics: 
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
You want it darker

Hineni, hineni
Hineni, hineni
I'm ready, my lord

Hineni
Hineni, hineni
Hineni

Letra:
Si eres tú quien reparte las cartas, yo estoy fuera del juego.
Si tú eres el curandero, eso significa que estoy maltrecho y cojo.
Si tuya es la gloria, entonces mía debe ser la vergüenza.
Quieres más oscuridad,
apagamos la llama.

Magnificado, santificado, sé tu nombre sagrado.
Denigrado, crucificado, en el cuerpo humano.
Un millón de velas encendidas por la ayuda que nunca vino.
Quieres más oscuridad.

Aquí estoy, aquí estoy
Estoy listo, mi Señor.

Hay un amante en la historia,
pero esta sigue siendo la misma.
Hay una nana para el sufrimiento,
y una paradoja a la que culpar.
Pero está escrito en las Escrituras,
y no es ninguna afirmación inútil.
Quieres más oscuridad,
apagamos la llama.

Están poniendo a los prisioneros en fila,
y los guardias les están apuntando.
Yo me revolví contra algunos demonios,
eran de clase media y aburridos.
No sabía que tenía permiso para asesinar y mutilar.
Quieres más oscuridad.

Aquí estoy, aquí estoy
Estoy listo, mi Señor.

Magnificado, santificado, sé tu nombre sagrado.
Denigrado, crucificado, en el cuerpo humano.
Un millón de velas encendidas por la ayuda que nunca vino.
Quieres más oscuridad,
apagamos la llama.

Si eres tú quien reparte las cartas, déjame salirme del juego.
Si tú eres el que cura, eso significa que estoy maltrecho y cojo.
Si tuya es la gloria, entonces mía debe ser la vergüenza.
Quieres más oscuridad,

Aquí estoy, aquí estoy .
Aquí estoy, aquí estoy
Estoy listo, mi Señor

Aquí estoy
Aquí estoy, aquí estoy
Aquí estoy


(*) "Hineni" es una palabra hebrea que quiere decir "aquí estoy"

Invaders - Iron Maiden

Invaders Iron Maiden Lyrics: Longboats have been sighted the evidence of war has begun Many Nordic fighting men their swords and shields all gleam in the sun Call to arms defend yourselves get ready to stand and fight for your lives Judgement day has come around so be prepared don't run stand your ground They're coming in from the sea they've come the enemy beneath the blazing sun the battle has to be won Invaders ... Pillaging Invaders ... Looting Set ablaze the campfires alert the other men from inland Warning must be given there's not enough men here for a stand The Vikings are too many too powerful to take on our own We must have reinforcements we cannot fight this battle alone They're coming over the hill they've come to attack they're coming in for the kill there's no turning back Invaders ... Fighting Invaders ... Marauding Axes grind and maces clash as wounded fighters fall to the ground Severed li...

Still of The Night - Whitesnake

Still Of The Night Whitesnake Lyrics: In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door In the still of the night I feel my heart beating heavy Telling me I gotta have more In the shadow of night I see the full moon rise Telling me what's in store My heart start aching My body start a shaking And I can't take no more Now I just wanna get close to you An' taste your love so sweet And I just wanna make love to you Feel your body heat In the still of the night In the still of the night Over here baby In the heat of the day , I hang my head down low And hide my face from the sun Through the light of the day Until the evening time I'm waiting for the night to come In the still of the night In the cool moonlight I feel heart is aching In the still of the night Tell me here baby! In the still of the night I hear the wolf howl, honey Sniffing around your door ...

Since You've Been Gone - Rainbow

Since You've Been Gone Rainbow Lyrics:   I get the same old dreams same time everynight Fall to the ground and I wake up So I get out of bed, put on my shoes and in my head Thoughts fly back to the breakup These four wall are closing in Look at the fix you put me in Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone So in the night I stand beneath the backstreet light I read the words that you sent to me I can take the afternoon, the night time comes around too soon You can't know what you mean to me Your poison letter, your telegram Just goes to show you don't give a damn Since you been gone Since you been gone I'm out of my head can't take it Could I be wrong But since you been gone You cast your spell so break it Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh Since you been gone If you will come back ...
