Northern soul

Midnight, moonlight
The wind blows off st. Claire
I'm stuck at a red light
Waiting
At 6th mile and Delaware
The sound of the distant fireburn
The echo of a riot, Smokey's words
An absence, sweet absence
Fills the freezing air

I've been wayside for years now
And no one seems to care
Their eyes on the distant horizon
Drawn from out of here
I gave you the American dream
Music for your movie scene
But you left me bleeding
So listen to my prayer

You can break my heart and crush my dreams
But you can never take my soul
You can crack my stones and melt my steel
But you can never take my soul
You can break my heart and crush my dreams
But you can never take my soul
You can crack my stones and melt my steel
But you can never take my soul

You can never take my soul
You can never take my soul
You can never take my soul
You can never take my soul
You can never take my soul
You can never take my soul

You can break my heart and crush my dreams
But you can never take my soul
You can crack my stones and melt my steel
But you can never take my soul
You can break my heart and crush my dreams
But you can never take my soul
You can crack my stones and melt my steel
But you can never take my soul
