Cher - The Fall (Kurt's Blues) Lyrics
Never even knew you
But I heard your note today
You talk about injustice
And how we look the other way
I knew full well your meaning
It's a shame about your future
It's a crime about your past
Was there no one who could save you
From the prison of each breath
Like Rapunzel in her tower
Isolation equals death
Was there no one who could rescue you
From the prison of your pain
Am I tougher or just lucky
But my heart has run on empty
Since I heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, Godless culture
We'd walk nowhere in your shoes
For me it's 6:30 in the morning
And my moods as black as rain
I am 30 light years older
But I understand your pain
They'll all hate you
'Cause you left them here
To struggle on their own
I'm sorry you saw no choice
'Til death chilled you to the bone
But my heart has run on empty
Since I heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, Godless culture
We'd walk nowhere in your shoes
Well the good news if there's any
Is you ever lived at all
But our country kills its heroes
We just raise them for the fall

Cher The Fall (Kurt's Blues) Comments
I get this song is about Kurt (RIP). But it also fits very well into celebrity worship culture.
Thank you, Cher, for writing this beautiful song. RIP, Kurt 😢
This is just beautiful. I have goosebumps and tears.
Tradução
A queda de blues de Kurt cobain
Cher
Nunca te conheci
Mas eu ouvi sua nota hoje
Você fala sobre injustiça
E como olhamos para o outro lado
Eu sabia muito bem o seu significado
Mas meu mundo apenas se move rápido demais
É uma pena o seu futuro
É um crime sobre o seu passado
…
Não havia ninguém que pudesse te salvar?
Da prisão de cada respiração
Como Rapunzel na torre dela
Isolamento é igual a morte
Não havia ninguém que pudesse te salvar?
Da prisão da sua dor
Eu sou mais forte ou apenas sortudo?
Nosso destino não terminou o mesmo
…
Mas meu coração correu vazio
Desde que ouvi a porra da notícia
Somos uma cultura sem coração e sem Deus
Nós não andávamos em lugar algum em seus sapatos
…
Para mim é 6:30 da manhã
E meu humor tão negro quanto a chuva
Eu tenho 30 anos-luz mais velhos
Mas eu entendo sua dor
Todos odeiam você
Porque você os deixou aqui
Para lutar por conta própria
Me desculpe você não viu escolha
Até a morte te esfriar até o osso
…
Mas meu coração correu vazio
Desde que ouvi a porra da notícia
Somos uma cultura sem coração e sem Deus
Nós não andávamos em lugar algum em seus sapatos
…
Bem, a boa notícia se houver alguma
Você já viveu alguma vez?
Mas nosso país mata seus heróis
Nós apenas os criamos para a queda
didn't know this song. quite good lyrics. may Kurt rest in peace.
This is a beautiful song.. Not really a Cher fan but this was really nice to hear... Especially because it was for kurt
Rolling Stone brought me here today. 4/2/19 RIP, Kurt
I didn't know Cher dedicated a song to Kurt Cobain. 😮 This is a great song. I wish more people would hear this.
Never even knew you
But I heard your note today
You talk about injustice
And how we look the other way
I knew full well your meaning
But my world just moves too fast
It's a shame about your future
It's a crime about your past
Was there no one who could save you
From the prison of each breath
Like Rapunzel in her tower
Isolation equals death
Was there no one who could rescue you
From the prison of your pain
Am I tougher or just lucky
Our fate didn't end the same
But my heart has run on empty
Since I heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, Godless culture
We'd walk nowhere in your shoes
For me it's 6:30 in the morning
And my moods as black as rain
I am 30 light years older
But I understand your pain
They'll all hate you
'Cause you left them here
To struggle on their own
I'm sorry you saw no choice
'Til death chilled you to the bone
But my heart has run on empty
Since I heard the fuckin' news
We're a heartless, Godless culture
We'd walk nowhere in your shoes
Well the good news if there's any
Is you ever lived at all
But our country kills its heroes
We just raise them for the fall
Its sad all THE Kurt fans out there doesn't hear this song
the Fall Brilliant
Amazing song!Cher was brilliant.
Michael Fellenz she is still alive you know 😅
It's a shame this album was shelved and later, when finally released, not promoted.
Because they don't like what this song says
Never knew she could write good songs like this more please cher xx

We just raise them for the fall"
