Malachi

Malachi, Malachias, Malache or Mal'achi ( (listen); Hebrew: מַלְאָכִי, Modern: Malakhi, Tiberian: Malʼāḵî, "Messenger", see malakh) was the writer of the Book of Malachi, the last book of the Neviim (prophets) section in the Hebrew Bible. No allusion is made to him by Ezra, however, and he does not directly mention the restoration of the temple. The editors of the 1906 Jewish Encyclopedia implied that he prophesied after Haggai and Zechariah (Malachi 1:10; 3:1, 3:10) and speculated that he delivered his prophecies about 420 BCE, after the second return of Nehemiah from Persia (Book of Nehemiah 13:6), or possibly before his return, comparing Malachi 2:8 with Nehemiah 13:15 (Malachi 2:10-16 with Nehemiah 13:23).

She was a little girl grown up too fast
Now she's a woman trying to get past who he said she'd be
He'd said, "Baby, you are nothing without me"
She knows there's a price to pay for love
But doesn't realize he's robbed her blind
She believes him when he tells her true love hurts
He knows that she can't see his love is a lie
His love is a lie
(Hum) He lies

She knows there's gotta be more than this
How long will I feel this emptiness
She knows that she can't make it out alone
I feel it deep down in my soul
There's a love somewhere that I've never known
I'm walking away and I'm never looking back
This place is not my home
Not my home

She was a delicate woman with a heart of glass
Now she's a broken spirit with a shattered past
All that she's ever wanted is to know what love feels like
A love that makes her feel alive
After all these years she still hears his words
Try to tell her that she's broken and has no worth
But from somewhere deep inside a greater voice cries out
Cries out

Girl, you were made to be so much more than this
Just like Judas he betrayed you with a kiss
But I held you close to Me so you'd never be alone
You felt it deep down in your soul
That love somewhere that your heart had craved to know
Walk away from the ashes of the fire, girl
And don't ever look back
That place was never your home

I feel it deep down in my soul
There's a place for me that I've yet to know
From streets of dust come streets of gold
A promise from the One who made me whole
