Soul Soldier - Kristin Hersh

The cut

That kills the knife

'Til it breaks

Spitting shells

Their eyes were locked

And their hearts were open

And in love, we couldn’t breathe

In love, they couldn’t say the word

In love, we couldn’t breathe

In love, they couldn’t breathe a word

He crawls along the battlefield

The sky spitting shells

That part is on the ground

Fate spits in his face

That cut

That kills the knife

Forcing it 'til it breaks

Forces our heart

Can’t replace

Forces a heartbreak

She loves him

She loves him

She needs her soul, soul soldier

Soul soldier

She loves him (he's all she needs)

She loves him (he's all she needs)

She needs her soul, soul soldier

Soul soldier

And I will run to heaven, not you

Damn you, God damn you

And I will run to heaven, not you

Damn you, God damn you

She loves him (he's all she needs)

She loves him (he's all she needs)

She needs her soul, soul soldier

(Soul soldier) And I will run to heaven, not you)

(She loves him) Damn you, God damn you
