Is there an album with better lyrics than this? It's so authentic. Each tracks tells something about Leonard Cohen. Some event/person/feeling in his life written in the most beautiful way. Bob Dylan gets close with Blood on the Tracks because it's actually about his life but I don't think he quite reaches the heights of this album.

look how close i was to 88553388
Lyrically, Cohen may actually be the best (imo). I also love Townes, and John Darnielle for lyrics. Albums Townes live in Huston and Get Lonely. Get Lonely is a concept album that tells a story. Metaphors continue throughout the album. Really a feat of writing, imo.
God Leonard Cohen fans really let the old dyl pickle live rent free in their heads don't they? They just cannot proclaim their love for their lyricdaddy without invoking dylan. Also Townes Van Zandt self titled has infinitely better lyrics
And joni mitchell's self titled too
I’m a Love & Hate guy. Famous Blue Raincoat slays.
Joni Mitchell and Neil Young come close, but not much is on that level
it's cause dylan is shit retard who gets all the love
Based.
Paul Simon is better than Dylan, but not Cohen.
