i_know_its_over
unhinged part of hallelujah on the mystery white boy album

mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head
as i climb into an empty bed
oh well, nough said
i know it's over
but still do i cling
i don't have anywhere else to turn
mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head


he sounds so very sad in this version. and those lyrics in the middle of hallelujah make it a completely different sadder song. i remember sitting on the stoop of my old apartment after coming home from a long day at school, smoking a cigarette, singing

mother i can feel the soil
falling over my head...

a hat full of hollow (c)1985/1986 - Morrissey (The Smiths)
from the album
"The Queen is Dead"

Oh, Mother
I can feel
The soil falling over my head
Oh, Mother
I can feel
The soil falling over my head

And as i climb
into an empty bed
Oh well - enough said

See the sea wants to take me
The knife wants to slit me
do ya think you can help me

Sad-veiled bride, please be happy
handsome groom, give her room
Loud, loutish lover
treat her kindly
'cause she needs you
more than she loves you

I know it's over
still i cling
I don't know where else i can go

I know it's over
though it never really began
but in my heart
it was so real
and you even spoke to me
and said

"If you're so funny
then why are you on your own tonight?
And if you're so terribly good looking
Why do you sleep alone tonight?

I know,
Because tonight
is just like any other night
That's why you're on your own, tonight
with your triumphs and your charms
while they're in each other's arms"

I know it's over
still i cling
I don't know where else i can go

it's so easy to laugh
it's so easy to hate
it takes strength to be gentle and kind

it's so easy to laugh
it's so easy to hate
it takes guts to be gentle and kind

(over, over)

Love is natural and real
but not for you, my love
not tonight, my love

Love is natural and real
but not for such as you and i, my love

Oh, mother-
i can feel the soil falling over my head

unhinged yes jeff_buckley did many covers

but his version of leonard_cohen 's hallelujah with those select lyrics from i_know_its_over....jeff was a kindred spirit of mine.


sometimes i would just like to throw myself in a river.
