Midnight Soldier

Blue skies in the beginning
All these destinies passin' me by (Me by)
Always a daily combat downtown
Deep behind the enemy lines (Oh-oh-oh-oh)
No name, no blessings, yeah
Nothing really comes my way (My way)
Sometimes I wonder how long
Now I’m taking it day by day
Ooh, working out here
Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder)
Sleeping out here
A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me walking in the rain
Seeking shelter (Seeking shelter)
You can see me slowly slippin' away
All the lonely people, broken people
Roaming in the streets
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me slowly slippin' away
Inside this little prison
You’ll find a vibrant burning heart
Young minds without a vision
Felt invincible from the start
Some strong, some fragile
Isn’t it like me and you? (And you)
This main street is our exile
And the sidewalk is our point of view
Ooh, working out here
Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder)
Sleeping out here
A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me walking in the rain
Seeking shelter (Seeking shelter)
You can see me slowly slippin' away
All the lonely people, broken people
Roaming in the streets
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me slowly slippin' away
Oh-oh-oh, slippin' away
Oh-oh-oh-oh, slippin' away
Ooh, working out here
Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder)
Sleeping out here
A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me walking in the rain
Seeking shelter (Seeking shelter)
You can see me slowly slippin' away
All the lonely people, broken people
Roaming in the streets
Hold on now, midnight soldier (Midnight soldier)
See me slowly slippin' away
Oh-oh-oh, slippin' away
Oh-oh-oh-oh, slippin' away
