// lyrics // Broke into her house. Saw her sittin' there, Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear. Saw him in the kitchen, hangin' up the phone. I asked him nicely please to pack his things and go. He gave her a reassuring look, that said he wouldn't leave. But I asked him once again and this time pulled out my shiv. I struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow, Watched him fall down, And as the morning sun rose, He looked at me and said: "You missed my heart, you missed my heart. You got me good. I knew you would. But you missed my heart, you missed my heart." Were his last words, before he died. Looking out the window, up at the blue sky, Listening to her scream, listening to her cry. A feeling of relief came over my soul. I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control. I chased her up the stairs And I pinned her to the ground, And underneath her whimpering, I could hear the sirens sound. I rattled off a list, of everything I missed Like going to the movies with her And the way she kissed me. Driving into Wheeling and showing her off. Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park. I said I loved her skin and she started laughing And while I clenched down on her wrist She said "That's quite a list.." "But there's one thing you missed. You missed my heart, you missed my heart That's quite a list, but what you really missed, You missed my heart, you missed my heart That's quite a list, but what you really missed." Running through the parking lots Running through the fields Policemen on my back Something hit my skull and cracked They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose Went racing through the prison yard, Shot down by a tower guard He got me in the shins And he got me in the arms Strapped me in the gurney Took me to the infirmary Where the priest read my last rites... And just before, everything went dark, I said: "He missed my heart, he missed my heart Just before, my world went dark, Said he missed my heart, he missed my heart" And just before, everything went dark, The most poetic dream came flowing like the sea Lay in there my life, but draining out of me A childhood scene then, sky moon beams, Fishing with my friends sitting in the wild lands Watching the Ohio river flow at night Waiting for the bullhead catfishes to bite Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards... Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards... Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards...
This was a nightmare Mark Kozelek had and it birthed this hauntingly beautiful song.. I'm only learning of Pheobe today and she's great, but once I heard she covered Koz song I fell hopelessly in love.
// lyrics //
Broke into her house. Saw her sittin' there,
Drinking coke and whiskey in her bra and underwear.
Saw him in the kitchen, hangin' up the phone.
I asked him nicely please to pack his things and go.
He gave her a reassuring look, that said he wouldn't leave.
But I asked him once again and this time pulled out my shiv.
I struck him in the back and I pulled it out slow,
Watched him fall down,
And as the morning sun rose,
He looked at me and said:
"You missed my heart, you missed my heart.
You got me good. I knew you would.
But you missed my heart, you missed my heart."
Were his last words, before he died.
Looking out the window, up at the blue sky,
Listening to her scream, listening to her cry.
A feeling of relief came over my soul.
I couldn't take it any longer and I lost control.
I chased her up the stairs
And I pinned her to the ground,
And underneath her whimpering,
I could hear the sirens sound.
I rattled off a list, of everything I missed
Like going to the movies with her
And the way she kissed me.
Driving into Wheeling and showing her off.
Backyard barbecues and reunions in the park.
I said I loved her skin and she started laughing
And while I clenched down on her wrist
She said "That's quite a list.."
"But there's one thing you missed.
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
That's quite a list, but what you really missed,
You missed my heart, you missed my heart
That's quite a list, but what you really missed."
Running through the parking lots
Running through the fields
Policemen on my back
Something hit my skull and cracked
They dragged me off to jail, set a million dollar bail
Where I tried to tie a noose, but I failed and I broke loose
Went racing through the prison yard,
Shot down by a tower guard
He got me in the shins
And he got me in the arms
Strapped me in the gurney
Took me to the infirmary
Where the priest read my last rites...
And just before, everything went dark, I said:
"He missed my heart, he missed my heart
Just before, my world went dark,
Said he missed my heart, he missed my heart"
And just before, everything went dark,
The most poetic dream came flowing like the sea
Lay in there my life, but draining out of me
A childhood scene then, sky moon beams,
Fishing with my friends sitting in the wild lands
Watching the Ohio river flow at night
Waiting for the bullhead catfishes to bite
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards...
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards...
Downriver from the Moundsville prison graveyards...

♡ miss her heart ♡
Absolutely love this song Ik it’s a cover but the emotion she conveys almost makes this song unbearable to listen to especially when sad
