Badlands

Lights out tonight
Trouble in the heartland
Got a head on collision
Smashin' in my guts man
I'm caught in a cross fire
That I don't understand
But there's one thing I know for sure girl
I don't give a damn
For the same old played out scenes
Baby I don't give a damn
For just the in-betweens
Honey I want the heart I want the soul
I want control right now
You better listen to me baby.

Talk about a dream
Try to make it real
You wake up in the night
With a fear so real
You spend your life waiting
For a moment that just don't come
Well don't waste your time waiting.

Badlands you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good.

Workin' in the fields
'til you get your back burned
Workin' 'neath the wheels
'til you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
Learned real good right now
You better get it straight darlin'
Poor man wanna be rich
Rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
'til he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight
I wanna find out what I got.

Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that can save me
I believe in the hope and I pray
That someday it may raise me
Above these badlands.

Badlands you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good.

For the ones who had a notion a notion deep inside
That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive
I wanna find one face that ain't looking through me
I wanna find one place
I wanna spit in the face of these...

Badlands you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep movin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good.

Whoa whoa whoa whoa badlands!
