Leonard Cohen - songwriter and poet

What an amazing artist this man is. His work gets under your skin. Well mine anyway. If you haven’t heard his work, you should check it out. Sorta depressing. I like it ;) If you’ve heard the Natural Born Killers soundtrack, you’d have heard Cohen’s gravelly voice on ‘The Future’. For a taste, check out ‘In My Secret Life’ at YouTube.

Broken - Seether/Evanescence

I wanted you to know that
I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away…
I keep your photograph and
I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You’ve gone away, you don’t feel me here, anymore

The worst is over now
And we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn
And no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away…

Cause I’m Broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone…

You’ve gone away, you don’t feel me here anymore…
