The Hallelujah by Jon Bryant Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Sharks keep me still, this makes it hard to stay alive
They gather 'round, where are my trophies and my rights?
Sharks leave me now, I'm not afraid to face the deep
I'd rather die a man of dignity than live my days asleep
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
[Verse 2]
What hope is this when mysteries are bought in stores?
What kind of man would find his honor in this town?
I still believe that God and men have similar groans
But we're looking for a drama played out on our own
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing, won't you sing, won't you sing hallelujah?
[Bridge]
With you beside me the hallelujah breaks my heart
With you beside me I cannot make it very far
With you beside me the hallelujah breaks my heart
With you beside me I cannot make it very far
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me the hallelujah?
Won't you sing me the hallelujah?
Sharks keep me still, this makes it hard to stay alive
They gather 'round, where are my trophies and my rights?
Sharks leave me now, I'm not afraid to face the deep
I'd rather die a man of dignity than live my days asleep
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
[Verse 2]
What hope is this when mysteries are bought in stores?
What kind of man would find his honor in this town?
I still believe that God and men have similar groans
But we're looking for a drama played out on our own
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing, won't you sing, won't you sing hallelujah?
[Bridge]
With you beside me the hallelujah breaks my heart
With you beside me I cannot make it very far
With you beside me the hallelujah breaks my heart
With you beside me I cannot make it very far
[Chorus]
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me hallelujah?
Won't you sing me the hallelujah?
Won't you sing me the hallelujah?
