The Hallelujah Mine

every feeling that i've hidden in my head instead of in my heart
is now flowing upwards slowly to the light
as i am drawing away from the dark
every word said in anger will now be revealed in love
and each moment of sadness will stand in its place
in the story that i'm making up

there's a light that’s shining somewhere deep inside
it's buried down so deep
from the time when i was small until today
i only see it when i go to sleep
but i know that it's there and i'm digging until i can find it
a release from the blindness
discarding the dirt that's behind it

in the hallelujah mine, my loves are waiting to be found again
when i cross that divide i'm gonna make that hallelujah mine

all the shadows i'm seeing just show that i'm nearing the light
and the sun will be rising proclaiming the end of the night

in the hallelujah mine, my loves are waiting to be found again
when i cross that divide i'm gonna make that hallelujah mine
