My Hallelujah

If with the wind

I'd have my way

I'd pull my house down on its face

I'd pull the wheel

It'd crash - it'd break

Then I would cry to see my rage

Now with promises and bits of string


My hands love to shake, hard to fix while panicking


I try to beg the glue to dry

I try to beg the stop of time


Then to ease my pain, I would have you cry

My hallelujah


Are you wondering?


My hallelujah


When your heart will break

If with the world


We'd spin our webs


I'd spin you a cage to be near you again


Then I'd have you sing - heartbroken - a Serenade


Then I would explode 
Just like a grenade

My hallelujah


Are you wondering?


Your hallelujah


When your heart will break

What I wouldn't give to be God


Just for a minute more of your love


Selfish as sin


To believe in


Anything, anything

My hallelujah


Are you wondering?


My hallelujah


When your heart will break


My hallelujah


Now I feel the same


But then, I am too young


To know anything
