How a Resurrection Really Feels

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:

Her parents named her Hallelujah, the kids all called her Holly

And if she scared you then she's sorry, she's been stranded at these parties

These parties they start lovely

But they get druggy and they get ugly and they get bloodyThe priest just kinda laughed, the deacon caught a draft

She crashed into the Easter mass with her hair done up in broken glass

She was limping left on broken heels

When she said, "Father, can I tell your congregation how a resurrection really feels?"Holly was a hoodrat, and now you finally know that

And she's been disappeared for years, today she finally came back

St. Louis had enslaved me, I guess Santa Ana saved me, St. Peter had me on the queue, the St. Paul saints they waved me through

I was all wrapped up in some video booth when I heard her say "I love you too"She said I've laid beneath my lovers but I've never gotten laid

Some nights she felt protected, some nights she felt afraid

She spent half last winter just trying to get paid

From some guy she originally thought to be her saviorThey wrote her name in magic marks on stop signs and subway cars

They got a mural up on East 13th that said "Hallelujah, rest in peace"

Hallelujah was a hoodrat, and now you finally know that

She's been disappeared for years, today she finally came backWalk on back, walk on backShe said don't turn me on again

I'd probably just go and get myself all gone again

Don't turn me on again

I'll probably just go and go and get myself all gone againSo don't turn me on again

I'll probably just go and go and get myself all gone again

Hallelujah was a sexy mess, she looked strung out but experienced

So we all got kind of curiousWalk on back...

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
