Lyrics:
The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
I crossed the line
I was not caught
Though many tried
I live among you
Well-disguised
I had to leave
My life behind
I dug some graves
You'll never find
The story's told
With facts and lies
I had a name
But never mind
Never mind
Never mind
The war was lost
The treaty signed
There's truth that lives
And truth that dies
I don't know which
So never mind
Your victory
Was so complete
Some among you
Thought to keep
A record of
Our little lives
The clothes we wore
Our spoons our knives
The games of luck
Our soldiers played
The stones we cut
The songs we made
Our law of peace
Which understands
A husband leads
A wife commands
And all of these
Expressions of the
Sweet indifference
Some called love
The high indifference
Some call fate
But we had names
More intimate
Names so deep
And names so true
They're blood to me
They're dust to you
There is no need
And this survives
There's Truth that lives
And Truth that dies
Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind
There's truth that lives
And truth that dies
I don't know which
So never mind
I could not kill
The way you kill
I could not hate
I tried, I failed
You turned me in
At least you tried
You side with them whom
You despise
This was your heart
This swarm of flies
This was once your mouth
This bowl of lies
You serve them well
I'm not surprised
You're of their kin
You're of their kind
Never mind
Never mind
I had to leave my
Life behind
The story's told
With facts and lies
You own the world
So never mind
Never mind
Never mind
I live the life
I left behind
I live it full
I live it wide
Through layers of time
You can't divide
My woman's here
My children too
Their graves are safe
From ghosts like you
In places deep
With roots entwined
I live the life
I left behind
The war was lost
The treaty signed
I was not caught
Across the line
I was not caught
Tho many tried
I live among you
Well-disguised
{No man can see
The vast design
Or who will be
Last of his kind}

This song sounds better each time I hear it.
I agree
***** Repetitive propaganda.
***** I love to creep my mom out with it. Every time I sing it she looks at me with fear!

This song is growing on me
Pandote I KNOW IT REALLY IS! Its gonna be just as iconic as "Far from any road" with time for sure!
Pandote At first I was put off and hated it, but I've gave it a few listens and its growing on me as well.
Pandote Same here...
Now it's stuck in my head.
***** Repetitive propaganda.

Thank you so much for respecting Leonard Cohen's work. I've run across far too many versions of this song where the Arabic voice is removed.
It definitely gives it texture and context.
Arabic? He's Jewish. Cohen!
For those that don't know the background to this song, it was originally a poem Cohen wrote in 2005. The song is about the Arab-Israeli war and displaced Palestinians who were able to blend in Israel. The lyrics are very literal: the war was lost, the treaty signed (the forming of Israel), I live among you, well disguised (some refugees stayed in Israel), you turned me in at least you tried, you side with them who you despise (likely referring to the Intifada where some Palestinians were working with the Israelis to quell the rebellion), the story's told with facts and lies, you own the world so never mind (the UN covered up much details about the 1.2 million displaced refugees).
The Arab lyrics say "peace, oh peace." It's an anti-war song and Cohen has long spoken out against the constant struggle in the Middle East. What the significance of this song for True Detective is I don't know other than it sounding cool to someone.
Oliver Twitt oh i didn't know that :o ! thanks for your explanation... I think more persons need to read this to understand the song.
Thank You!
As Israeli jew its really interesting. I always wondered what the Arab vocals has to do with this song from true detective intro. I personally feels its really don’t fit to the song
But he is a jew tho so it doesnt make sense he makes a song about being a muslim disguised as a jew. I think its about the arcane knowledge of the secret societies like the freemasons or the rosicrucians. Ever since the templars these societies have been chased at outlawed that why they live among us well disguised .In the alchemical weddingsof Christian Rosenkreutz, one of the fundamental books of rosicrucianis, its mentioned that some knowledge will be lost and some books burned. When Johannes Trithemius published his Stenographie, it was included in the index of forbiden books by the church to later be re-published "with the permission of the superiors" (which superiors?), knowledge that is too dangerous for the layman has been hidden and even destroyed. He even makes a reference to cutting stones and a reference to names that are deep and true aka the language of the birds en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Language_of_the_birds
I knew it!!
Leonard Cohen: Granddaddy of cool, poet extraordinaire.
Poor poet, good songwriter - greatest merit - the metaphor.
I'm almost ashamed to have discovered this man's work so late in my life, while he, unfortunately, had already passed away. Almost every thing he did resonates so... deeply within me. His voice... damn... like a sharp razor though my heart. Hard to describe. It shakes up and shatters my soul every time, but in a great way, since all those feelings he brings through me... they remind me: I still feel. I'm still alive.
I'm still alive.
Never be even 'almost ashamed' for discovering something that resonates deeply. I was a late 90's angsty teenage Nirvana fan and didn't realize Kurt directly referred to Mr Cohen as an enlightened one in the song Pennyroyal Tea until I was 29... The point is you found some art that enriches your life. It's not 'late in your life', you found it at the exact right time.
Another example from my life... My first girlfriend listened to Bob Dylan all the time, so I was familiar with many of the 'classics'. A decade later I heard a song I'd never hear before, then went on a deep dive. Before that I would say "yeah I like Bob Dylan", but I had never really listened... It took that independent discovery to really appreciate it independently.
Art is subjective. Good art meets you where you are when you're ready.
Whether cohen is alive is irrelevant....
Your soul needs reinforcement if it shatters so easily
I understand everything you say.
Thank you for your honesty, so I am sure I get it right. It feels almost the same to me, when I hear. Every line.
Holy fuck listen to this high. Every time he talks it's fucking beautiful.
Fu_k yeah like every song in this album
Not sure which one is better.
Far From Any Road or this one.
BOTH ARE SO FREAKING AMAZING!
Can't decide!
Kevin Merchant For me, it's Far From Any Road by the slightest margin imaginable! I'm pleasantly surprised, though, they found an equally awesome song for season 2, perfectly underlining the feeling of the show.
You just gotta wait for the season to proceed!
As every episode goes by, these theme song is going to grow on us, even more!
Kevin Merchant ♩"Can't Decide, can't decide, you don't have to make up your mind"♩
Kevin Merchant Amazing? This has no real tune! Cohen does much better stuff.
Geo T I loved the lyrics!
"But we had names more intimate"
"They're blood to me, but dust to you" and more.
Open for suggestions though!
Rest in peace Leonard, you're one of those artists that made my everyday life easier, and for that, i will thank you eternally.
RIP
"I have to leave... my life behind."

Badass song

do you know what this song is about?
Palestinians who survived the ethnic cleansing of "Plan Dalet" in 1948, and live hidden in their ancestral lands passing as one of the colonizers
TRUE DETECTIVE brought me here :)
Natia Shakaia va qartvelebsac gvqonia gemovneba :))))

Me too
I've finished watching season 1 and played through the Cohen opening of S2.
I hear Leonard Cohen and I'M THERE! He is our man.
True Detective must have an entire department dedicated to finding perfect credit songs.
Not anymore
uhmmm-mhhhhhhm
How could you hate Leonard Cohen? Some people don't have a grip
we are ugly, but we have leonard cohen...
Ah but you got away...
Didn't you babe?
stargazer1907
rip
You did not meet him!
What I love more than anything about this is the ambiguity of the lyrics. On the one hand, it sounds like the deep sentiments of a refugee from a war zone, and on the other it may be describing a sneering war criminal who has escaped with their crimes and memories.
Or the same person
The best lyrics ever, it still gives me goosebumps.
But Nevermind
I am from Ireland, living in Berlin. For me, the song reminds me of The Troubles and the war we fought. The Treaty signed. Cohen reached stunning levels of insight in his work. Bird on a Wire would be enough for his immortality. But there is always more. From the personal to the political.
it's about Palestinians who survived the ethnic cleansing of "Plan Dalet" in 1948, and live hidden in their ancestral lands passing as one of the colonizers
@@prismpyre7653 and your source is?
We could be friends,Jamey Johnson in colour has excellent lyrics.
RIP. An amazing performer, voice and visionary. A poet of excellence and a loss to the industry and the arts in general.
Cohen was not a good poet - he was a good songwriter.
If I had ever imagined god's voice,it has to be Leonardo Cohen's voice
The best opening song of all hole world!
I love this CD. Leonard Cohen just gets better with age. Thank you for all the words and music. No one performs Leonard Cohen's poetry like Leonard Cohen.
Cohen was a good songwriter not a poet. He was a poor poet.
True detective always makes me search for those songs :D
One of the best. Canada is poorer without you.
The WORLD is poorer without Leonard Cohen.
What a legendary voice
He can evoke so much emotion with s couple syllables
Leonard Cohen - best songwriter in the world.
RIP you beautiful genius.
😢 💝 👍 🙏 😇 **LeGenDaRy.!* 💐
Absolutely adore adore adore you and your voice Leonard Cohen. Warmmmm hugs from India.
Donna De Lory does the vocals. Her voice is just so amazing.
Its got a haunting quality to it.
tyty for the share.
Y E S B R O
Like a good scotch whiskey the music produced by this man gets better as it matures and ages.
I do not like whiskey, but I agree with your opinion about his music. Still one out of two is not bad !
michael berry Bourbon, that's the correct choice.
🎯 👍 🍻 💝 💯
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
R.I.P.
Thank you for your wonderful music

'tarantino....this 1 is straight up your alley.....use it in your next movie
Fie-ți odihna liniștită...
This song could last for hours and never bore.
A good script . Good start. The creators are no longer guided by the audience and began to do what they like!!! Respect!
Alex Kar show sucks
Corvo Black Only in your mind.
Alex Kar The thought that a TV should always go by the audience's terms is an illusion. Nic Pizzolatto just did what he wanted to do and all the other TV people should do so too, and should have done so before. Too bad if they don't or didn't. Each True Detective season is an artwork of its own and that's what brought me into watching it. Continuous TV series always get carried away at some point. True Detective is the way I feel TV should've always been.
***** TV is a flat circle.
Carter Meadows
You said it, pal! :D
True Detective S2 brought me here.
MikeRiderOOO PizzaHacko a Hack, Fukushima the real genius.
MrThech are you an idiot? Pizzolatto is the creator of the show, the one who wrote the story/screenplay. Fukunaga, not Fukushima, was the director, and although he is indeed a genius, he wouldn't have had a movie to direct without the genius of Pizzolatto.
then why the episode was fucking boring? had you never of some hack fatfuck named gerorge?
*heard
MrThech first episode of season 1 was pretty boring too
C'est un enchantement d'écouter Léonard Cohen. Il y a 40 ans j'aimais l'écouter. Et aujourd'hui, je suis juste subjuguée.
True Detective..
Theme song from "True Detective." I knew I recognized that voice first time it came on!! Always have adored Leonard Cohen' deep voice...
we will miss you leonard
Каждая прослушанная мелодия- жемчужина,,, Хочется слушать в повторении каждую,,, И после каждой восторг и буря чувств ! Спасибо, МАЭСТРО!
к черту Россию
"a husband leads
a wife commands"
Surprising number. Typical Leonard. With fresh tunes. Top, your true Belgian Fan (Flanders). A prayer. A song. A hidden secret. But so warmhearted.
Happy birthday to Leonard Cohen (belatedly). And let's thank him for these musical gifts.
Очень крутая песня, а смысл просто рвет.
For every episode of True Detective S2, where this was the title song, I would sit and watch and listen in awe, never fast-forwarding.
**SaMe heRe.!* 👍 🎶 💝
THANKS FOR YOUR WONDERFUL SONGS INCLUDING THIS ONE ......
magic, pure and simple
"This was once your mouth, this bowl of lies." So good.
Without more words❤
Here is power of words! Amazing and Incredible!
Wonderful to see people all over the world loving Leonard!
Leo był jest i będzie wielki !!! Dziadek bardzo ładnie bawił się muzyką! Jestem na tak !!! 🇵🇱
The Prophet speaks
One more Poetry about Strong Words around Loving People and Unity of Us!
Thanks Leonard!
I've read that this song is about a Palestinian living in Israel, thus the female voice's refrain throughout, but as a Montanan who married a Chippewa-Cree tribe member, this song also has a very modern American Indian feeling. Very cool.
Badass!!! Thanks Leonard Cohen and True Detective!
He was singing from the heart superb song from s2 True detective
The High Priest of The Muses has done it again. Luv it XxX
this song just grows on u~
I dug some graves you'll never find...
RIP
🖤 😮🥰🙏 RIP. WHAT A PERFECT PRODUCTION, MASTERPIECE. NOT ALL WILL UNDERSTAND JUST HOW POWERFUL, DEEP, & OUTSTANDING THE LYRICS.
Песня про нас
The creepy thing about the intro of True Detective is they change lyrics each episode. And somehow they allude to what happens each time.

Those are among us.
I Welcome Judgement!
Absolutely the best. I grabbed onto his music when I was a 13 year old boy. I'm now 60 years old. I learned from him, that it was ok to be dark. So I welcomed it all. I saw him live at the Fox Theatre in St. Louis. He was then 75 years old. But full of life's spirit. He skipped across stage. Thank you Leonard. R.I.P.
this is a poem in in song format

Leonard Cohen is a genius, he doesn't work since the 80s and leave all the singing to the women chorus
This song was so much better than the show
RIP Léonard. Gracie mille!
Just about the only good thing about True Detective season 2 was that I discovered this song. Leonard Cohen is fantastic :)
