[Verse 1] 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
[Pre-Chorus] Ooh, working out here Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder) Sleeping out here A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
[Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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
[Pre-Chorus] Ooh, working out here Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder) Sleeping out here A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
[Chorus] 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 [Bridge] Oh-oh-oh, slippin' away Oh-oh-oh-oh, slippin' away
[Pre-Chorus] Ooh, working out here Earning is a lot harder (Harder), harder (Harder) Sleeping out here A gunshot is a lot louder (Louder), louder
[Chorus] 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
