A Broken Halleluiah

Stand with me.
Tell me it’s going to be ok.
I don’t care if you lie.
Just tell me it’s going to be ok.

Hold my hand.
Reassure me that it will get better.
I don’t care if you lie.
Just reassure me that it will get better.

Look into my eyes.
Promise me you won’t leave.
I don’t care if you lie.
Just promise me you won’t leave.

I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying that I will be washed in light again.
I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying I will someday be able make it through this.

Smile.
So I can feel the warmth in it.
I don’t care if it’s not real.
Just smile.

Laugh.
So I know you’re happy.
I don’t care if it’s not real.
Just laugh.

Love.
I don’t care if it’s not real.
Just love.

I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying that you are happy.
I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying you’ll never be like me.

Let go of my hand.
Because I don’t want to hold you back anymore.
I don’t care if you don’t want to.
Let go of my hand.

Walk away.
Because I don’t want to keep you from something better.
I don’t care if you don’t want to.
Walk away.

Don’t cry.
I know it’s hard.
Just Please.
Don’t cry.

I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying that you know how much I love you.
I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Praying that I can do this on my own.

Lie to me.
Tell me I’ll be ok.
Lie to me.
Because I’m crying a Broken Halleluiah.

I need to go.
I need to do this on my own.
I need to go.
I need to try this on my own.

I love you.
There is not a lie in that.
I love you.
There never was a lie in that.

I’m praying I get better.
For you and for me.
I’m praying I get better.
So I don’t keep hurting those around me.

My heart is crying a Broken Halleluiah.
My eyes are crying a Broken Halleluiah.
Don’t be like me.
Don’t cry a Broken Halleluiah.

Lie to me.
Tell me I’ll overcome this.
Lie to me.
Because someday I wish to sing

A Halleluiah
