Summary: Legolas returns to Mirkwood after something bad happens to him, set to the song of Hallelujah.
Disclaimer: I don't own Hallelujah, Jeff Buckley sings it, so I guess he owns it! I don't own Lord of the rings either, though I do want to own a certain Blond elf! Wink
Hallelujah
Legolas looked into the pool of clear rainwater as he practically dragged himself into Mirkwood. Was this really him? It didn't look like him at all, he looked different, yet the same.
He leaned against the tree. He used to love listening to the trees as a young elf ling, but was still fond of it. Would the trees still talk to him, or was he just an outsider now? He had been through so much; right now he just needed to hear the sweet voices of the trees. Yes, they were talking to him, or rather singing, in a soft clear voice. It didn't sound like a tree but rather an elven voice.
i heard there was a secret chord
that david played and it pleased the lord
but you don't really care for music, do you
well it goes like this the fourth, the fifth
the minor fall and the major lift
the baffled king composing hallelujah
hallelujah...
well your faith was strong but you needed proof
you saw her bathing on the roof
her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
she tied you to her kitchen chair
she broke your throne and she cut your hair
and from your lips she drew the hallelujah
hallelujah...
baby i've been here before
i've seen this room and i've walked this floor
I used to live alone before i knew you
i've seen your flag on the marble arch
but love is not a victory march
it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah
hallelujah...
well there was a time when you let me know
what's really going on below
but now you never show that to me do you
but remember when i moved in you
and the holy dove was moving too
and every breath we drew was hallelujah
well, maybe there's a god above
but all i've ever learned from love
was how to shoot somebody who outdrew you
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
hallelujah...
Legolas leaned against the tree, and closed his eyes, just as Mirwen (1) came into the clearing, after finishing her song. She saw Legolas and gasped, he was different, so different, yet so the same.
(1) Mirwen is an elven name, and it means 'Jewel Maiden'.
