The Old Revolution - Leonard Cohen (莱昂纳德·科恩)

I finally broke into the prison

I found my place in the chain

Even damnation is poisoned with rainbows

All the brave young men

They're waiting now to see a signal

Which 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 revolution

On the side of the ghost and the king

Of course I was very young

And I thought that we were winning;

I can't pretend I still feel

Very much like singing

As they carry the bodies away

Into this furnace

I ask you now to venture

You whom I cannot betray

Lately you've started to stutter

As though you had nothing to say

To all of my architects

Let me be traitor

Now let me say

I myself gave the order

To sleep and to search and to destroy

Into this furnace

I ask you now to venture

You whom I cannot betray

Yes you who are broken by power

You who are absent all day

You who are kings

For the sake of your children's 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

You whom I cannot betray
