Knives, they take the poison from the wound
Take your heart out of the shell
She's the one sleeping in the dirt
Take your heart out of the shell
Gamblers like candles for the dice
Drag her down, don't let her drown in dirt
Take your heart out of the shell
Throw it away
Soldier Jane, don't be afraid
Soldier Jane, don't be afraid
Take your heart out of the shell
'Cause they drag us down into the ruins
Stars, they strike the darkness from the room
No one wake her up, she's sleeping still
Lovers drag their canes across the gates
Sleep our cares away and dirty boots
So put a candle on the window sill
