It Seemed the Better Way
Painting by alaudinelezi on deviant art
It Seemed the Better Way
It seemed the better way
When first I heard him speak
But now it's much too late
To turn the other cheek
It sounded like the truth
It seemed the better way
You'd have to be a fool
To choose the meek today
I wonder what it was
I wonder what it meant
He seemed to touch on love
But then he touched on death
Better hold my tongue
Better learn my place
Lift my glass of blood
Try to say the Grace.
Leonard Cohen
from BOOK OF LONGING
