halleluiah

Another long-winded politician
Another long and winding road
Past the old church, past the mission
Another worn and weary sole

And the wind whispers halleluiah
As the footprints blow away
And the dust echoes halleluiah
As the evidence is erased

Another bulletproof king of something
Another bullet buzzing by
Another close call, another brush with the end of the line

And the street lights whisper halleluiah
As the crowd begins to thin
And the darkness echoes halleluiah
He’s coming down again

The path he’s chosen, be it straight or be it broken
Be it famous or unspoken in the end
The doubt and fear all the while was leading here
Halleluiah

Another lost love, full of questions
Another hole in the earth
Another farewell, wrapped in blessing
Another death adorned with birth

And the hills whisper halleluiah
As the night loosens her grip
And the sunrise echoes halleluiahAs the new/breaking day begins
