i think its about her telling a story about "david" creating a song on the piano. "...the secret chord... Well it goes like this: the fourth, the fifth The minor fall and the major lift" and the king liked it so much that he cried out "hallelujah." but the person theyre telling the story to doesnt really like music? then david thought he was great? or was becoming someone, but he needed to be sure... (second verse)so he saw this girl bathing and her beauty threw him off, but shes actually like, really bad. "She tied you to her kitchen chair She broke your throne and she cut your hair And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah" she messed him up bad, and took the one thing that he knew was sure in his life and destroyed it. (third verse)the person telling the story has been at the same low times as the one being told the story. and saying that they used to be a lone before the one was in their life. does that make sense? and the "flag" might be like a white flag, for giving up? and maybe its saying that love is hard, you just have to keep working at it? "And love is not a victory march It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah" maybe "hallelujah" means like your greatest accomplishment? maybe? i dont know. im still trying to figure that out. i think the fourth verse is talking to the actually person this time and theyre saying that they used to tell them what was going on with them, and getting them involved with their life? but not anymore cause its hard for them? and whenever they were getting to know each other again, they seemed to be like they used to but only the other person was more...happy? "But remember when I moved in you And the holy dove was moving too And every breath we drew was Hallelujah" and everything was getting better. like life was coming smoothly the way they wanted it too. (fifth verse)"Maybe there is a god above But all I've ever learned from love Was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you" not actually shoot someone. but try to cut them down? but it also doesnt have to be someone living. it could mean something that signifies it. "And it's not a cry that you hear at night It's not somebody who's seen the light It's a cold and it's a broken Hallelujah" your unfinished business? your goals that you never followed through on? i dont know, thats what i got out of it. maybe this would help you? :)
