Soul
Charming Liars
12: 31 while you sitting up, writing
At the table where your bills keep [?]
Your hunger, but your heart going fast
You see the world, through a [?]
Capturing live, cause is never gonna come back
If you died today, I could say one thing
It would be this
You've got soul, you've got soul
You got a [?] through the fire
Burn up the lights
Hold on, hold on in something true
You've got soul, you've got soul
You always [?], the good [?]
If you died today, I could say one thing
It would be this
You've got soul, you've got soul
You got a [?] through the fire
Burn up the lights
Hold on, hold on in something true
You've got soul, you've got soul
If they say that you always have nothing
If they say that you should be someone else
If they say that, you gotta know that
You gotta know that
You've got soul, you've got soul
You got a [?] through the fire
Burn up the lights
Hold on, hold on in something true
You've got soul, you've got soul
You've got soul
The song Soul by Charming Liars is a powerful and inspiring anthem that serves as a reminder to never lose sight of what makes you unique and special. The opening lines set the tone for the song by describing a late night writing session where the singer notices the dreamy and inspired state of the person they're observing. They're drawn to the fact that this person is chasing their dreams despite the obstacles that await them. The mention of their hunger and fast-beating heart captures the intensity and passion that comes with pursuing one's goals.
The chorus of the song is a rallying cry that extols the virtues of having soul. The repeated phrase "You've got soul" reinforces the idea that this person possesses a quality that sets them apart. The line "You got a [?] through the fire" indicates that this person has gone through difficult times and come out the other side stronger for it. The lyrics urge the listener to "Hold on in something true" which could be interpreted as a call to stay true to oneself and not compromise on one's values or beliefs even in the face of adversity.
The repeated refrain "You've got soul" is a reminder that we all have something special within us that we can draw upon to overcome challenges and pursue our dreams. The song Soul by Charming Liars is a powerful and uplifting anthem that encourages us to embrace our unique qualities and stay true to ourselves.

LYRICS:
12: 31 while you sitting up, writing
At the table where your bills keep piling
You sonic imagery, does everything but feed
Your hunger, but your heart's doing fine
You see the world, through a chewed up [?]
Capture it live, cause is never gonna come back
If you were to die today, I could say one thing
It would be this...
[Chorus]
You've got soul
You've got soul
You got a site through the fire
Burn out the lights
Hold on, hold on to something true
You've got soul
You've got soul

You've always kept the good fight fighting
The loudest thunder fierce as lightning
If you were to die today and I could say one thing
