Broken Hallelujah

Broken Hallelujah

There is no secret song or chord
that could ever please the King or Lord
From whence they came but never born
all for the right to the holy throne

Oh I know we've been here before
walking though deceiving doors...
They tide us down!
and took our crown!
they tore our pride!
they cut our hair!
broke our spirits!
and then left us there...

Hallelujah...such a broken hallelujah...

The piano plays the angry chord
that rages to displease the Lord!
Oh and if you want to hear it like this
the drastic drop and the major lift!
They said they were trying to save ya
You never knew the danger of Hallelujah...

Its not someone whose seen the light
its that sharp cry you hear in the night
its just another broken hallelujah...

I remember when the devil's soul was in you
and when the holy dark moved within me too
together from our lips we drew the hallelu-
No, it was not the Hallelujah.

Religion and Truth is not a victory march
Oh...fake faith is like a rainbow's arch
Whats the point if your going to get caught
It didn't matter if you were a better shot
Because I already knew I could outdrew ya
Life is just a cold and broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah...Hallelujah...such a sad hallelujah...

But so what if everything went wrong?
from love we are reborn to sing the song
of Hallelujah...for there was hope all along...

Hallelujah...Hallelujah...

    Had to add a bit more.This is a very deep subject-religion, good and evil, hope and hopelessness.You have expressed this so eloquently, you truly write with a maturity and understanding of your years.I see great things in your future.This is so profound and philosophical and has such a deeper meaning and intelligence.It means more every time I read it.I am very impressed with this, as I am with all your work, but this truly stands out.You are one of the best poets on this site in my eyes.

    Peace, Love, Poetry, & Power,
