I Know It's Over

Jeff Buckley

Transposer:

Intro : Oh Mother I can feel the soil falling over my head And as I climb into an empty bed - oh well enough said I know it’s over still I cling I don’t know where else I can go Over and over..... Oh Mother I can feel the soil falling over my head See the sea wants to take me the knife wants to slit me Do you think you can help me Sad veiled bride please be happy - handsome groom give her room Loud loutish lover treat her kindly though she needs you More than she loves you - and I know it’s over - still I cling I don’t know where else I can go - over and over..... I know it’s over and it never really began but in my heart it was so real And she even spoke to me and said "If you’re so funny then why are you on your own tonight?" "And if you’re so clever then why are you on your own tonight?" "And if you’re so very entertaining then why are you on your own tonight?" "And if you’re so very good looking then why do you sleep alone tonight?" I know - ’cos 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 It’s so easy to laugh it’s so easy to hate it takes strength to be gentle and kind - over and over.... It’s so easy to laugh it’s so easy to hate it takes guts to be gentle and kind - over and 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... etc. ...

Cette chanson évoque des sentiments profonds de solitude et de désespoir. Le narrateur, en proie à la tristesse, s'adresse à sa mère tout en réalisant que sa relation est terminée, même s'il s'accroche encore à l'espoir. Il ressent une lutte intérieure, tiraillé entre la nécessité d'amour et la douleur de la séparation. Les paroles soulignent aussi la difficulté d'être vraiment présent dans une relation, tout en évoquant la superficialité de certaines interactions humaines. Le son et les émotions qui en émanent laissent entrevoir un contexte où l'amour et le désespoir cohabitent, révélant un monde où les attentes ne se réalisent pas et où les connexions authentiques semblent impossibles. Dans un moment de vulnérabilité, le protagoniste questionne sa valeur et se confronte à son isolement, tout en cherchant une forme de compassion dans ce vide.
