[Verse 1] Guess I got a real bad habit
Of killing 'em all for the taste
It's a love so savage
Where all of your prayers go to waste
Take me by the hand, take me by the hand
Let me lead you honey
To the pearly gates

[Pre-Chorus] Oh, I know, I know
You better than that
But you learned to kill
The ones that hold you back

[Chorus] Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-oh
What a beautiful world it is
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-oh
So young and innocent
And they're all crying out your name
Hallelujah, fame

[Verse 2] So hold me now, but not too close
And tell me just what hurts the most

[Pre-Chorus] Oh I know, I know
You better than that
Better learn to kill
The ones that hold you back

[Chorus] Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-oh
What a beautiful world it is
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-oh
So young and innocent
And they're all crying out your name
Hallelujah, oh

[Post-Chorus] One by one
Hear me say goodbye
A smoking gun in a sacred light
I'll be the one who drags you down
To the sound of hallelujah
Hallelujah, fame
Hallelujah, fame
