lyrics

First he built me
Then he broke me
He gave me breath and
Then he choked me
He said he’d give me something
Real to cry about
Instead he
Gave me something big
To lie about

But then you say he’s a saint
Aa-ah
I sit here without complaints
Aa-ah
You all think he’s a saint
Aa-ah
So hallelujah

I learned to walk
She learned to tiptoe
And she was there
But I felt alone
'Cause every time I
Cried too hard or I
Screamed out in fear
She would only say
Please stop
What if the neighbours hear?

And she said that
He couldn’t help it
If I had known pain like him
I would be just like him
She said that
He couldn’t help it
If I had known pain like him
I would be just like him x2

He’s a saint
cause he pays to fix
Everything that he’s broken
He’s a saint
‘Cause she swears
He’s never meant
A word he’s spoken
He’s a saint
Gave me breakfast
Gave me braces
Gave me money
Showed me grace
When he offered to
Kill himself instead of me

He's a saint, aa-ah
You all think he's a saint, aa-ah
So hallelujah
