LEONARD COHEN LYRICS
"In My Secret Life"
I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There’s no one in sight.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.
I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life.
Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I’ll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.
Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it’s either black or white.
Thank G-d it’s not that simple
In My Secret Life.
I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.

Leonard Cohen is a buddhist monk, if you were wondering.

my secret life.... perhaps. We say things here, we exchange thoughts that are not told inour other life...perhaps. Who knows? It's secret.

Everybody knows the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows that the war is over
Everybody knows that the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight is fixed
The poor stay poor and the rich get rich
That's how it goes
And everybody knows
From "Everybody Knows" by Leonard Cohen

"Psycho Circus" from KISS would be a rather appropriate theme song for R&S.
Welcome to the show.

I some ways, that song reminds me of R & S.

i think you are giving too much credit to R+S by comparing it to a song like this.

I'm not sure R&S is quite that nice.
(good to see you)
