 Song 202

Hello everyone! I am back from the dead lol, it feels so good to be writing again! But I also really needed that break, Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026! For my first song of the year, I have Hallelujah by Black Veil Brides! I've gotten back into them recently, and forgot how good they are! This is a newer song of theirs, and the first time I listened to this I wasn't the biggest fan of it. But after listening to it again, I realized that I was wrong. It's actually a really good song! So let's get into it! 

Starting with the intro, we have this chorus like vocals. Singing "Hallelujah my soul." Before being hit with this almost battle movie sound. Which is so sick! Bringing us into the first verse: "They worship the screen, the digital shrine. Demanding purity while rotting inside, the saints are all sinners. With halos for show, the sins are forgotten the moment you let go. I pray for my failure, I beg for my blood. But heaven stays silent, the gates remain shut." The first part of this chorus has some awesome screaming, as for the analysis. I'm not sure how to go about that, let's just continue on. The chorus: "Hallelujah, my soul. Been crucified for letting go. Hallelujah I know. Some day you praise what you hate, and suffer exemplary." I'm not really sure what they mean by all of this, so I think I'll leave the interpretation up to you wonderful people! There's a little instrumental part, after the chorus. Then we have the second verse: "They mark the forgotten, they spit on the weak. Brave new saviors tell you just how to think." Okay, this part here. I feel like they're talking about, how people are telling you what to do and how to live your life. Claiming that their way is the best way, but only you can take control of your own life! There's a new part of the chorus, after this section. "I was the outcast, the ghost of my muse. The artist who's buried, beneath the accused. Now I'm a fire they'll never contain." I like this part, not sure why. I just like how it's worded here. Another instrumental part, then we have the bridge: "Hallelujah, for my soul. Hallelujah, just let go. Hallelujah, praise the son. Hallelujah, broken one." Again love the wording here, then the chorus repeats. With one last instrumental section, and the outro is the same as the bridge. But it has that chorus/choir feel again. 

So yeah, pretty cool song. I hope you check it out! I am so looking forward to music this year! Stay tuned for more reviews, and I will see you in the next one! RAWR! <3
