Holy (Til You Let Me Go) Letra - Rina Sawayama

Heavenly, that was me

A vision at seventeen

Loves to read, loves to dream

The college of Magdalene

You saw a light starting to shine

Wanted it only for your eyes

Older and wise, God on your side

(I paid for your life, I paid for your life)

I was innocent when you said I was evil

I took your stones and I built a cathedral

Found my peace when I lost my religion

All these years I wished I was different

But, oh, now I know

I'm holy till you let me go

Tried to pray the pain away

Just like you taught me (But something had changed)

Came to shelter from the blame

But I left taking all the shame

Oh, you saw a light starting to shine

Wanted it only for your eyes

Older and wise, God on your side

(I was the martyr who paid for your life)

I was innocent when you said I was evil

I took your stones and I built a cathedral

Found my peace when I lost my religion

All these years I wished I was different

But, oh, no, now I know

I'm holy till you let me go

I'm holy till you let me go

I'm holy till you let me go

I'm holy till you let me go

I'm holy till you let me go

They told you that?

That's what was the most shocking to me

Was not that it happened in the first place

But that there was no one looking after you
