Thao, Mirah - Hallelujah lyrics

If you start to think that it's all over now
That the work you have done
Has been lost somehow
You wake up hungry in this world you've made
So much so how could you be turned away
Under thunder we drove through a black sky
Paved with the threat we might die
Oh we were so afraid
You can throw your body up against the
Glass but you can't stop the rain
From pouring in once the
Cracks have been made
But there's still time to sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah who could stay sleepin' when
That garbage man came?
He stormed up the street 'cause
We called out his name
With the sounds of us choking on
The mess that's been made
Dig us out from this slumber
We've given salt, we've sweated off
Done all this and more
So heed when you hear us
Knockin' on your door
We don't want to be the
Currency gets spent on war
And then come home wondering what
Was it all for that's no way to sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah we been hard hard working
We've got a plan send home dollar bills
And fistfuls of honey
We've been working working for that money
