The Opposite Of Hallelujah - Jens Lekman
I took my sister down to the ocean
But the ocean made me feel stupid
Those words of wisdom
I had prepared
All seemed to vanish into thin air
Into the waves I stared

I picked up a seashell
To illustrate my homelessness
But a crab crawled out of it
Making it useless
And all my metaphors fell flat
Down on the rocks where we sat
She asked where you are
But sister
it's the opposite of hallelujah
It's the opposite of being you
You don't know
'cause it just passes right
through you
You don't know
what I'm going through
You don't know
what I'm going through
You don't know
what I'm going through

We made our way home on the
bikes we had borrowed
I still never told you
about unstoppable sorrow
You still think I'm someone
to look up to
I still don't know
anything about you
Is it in you too
You've got so much to live for
little sister
You've got so much to live for
But sister
it's the opposite of hallelujah
It's the opposite of being you
You don't know
cause it just passes right
through you
You don't know
what I'm going through
You don't know
what I'm going through
You don't know
what I'm going through
