Lyrics Soul Soldier - Kristin Hersh

Soul Soldier

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
