Badlands

[Verse 1] 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 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 Talk about a dream Try to make it real You wake up in the night With a fear so real Spend your life waiting For a moment that just don't come Well, don't waste your time waiting [Chorus] Badlands, you gotta live it everyday Let the broken hearts stand As the price you've gotta pay We'll keep pushin' till it's understood And these badlands start treating us good [Verse 2] Workin' in the fields Till you get your back burned Workin' 'neath the wheel Till you get your facts learned Baby I got my facts Learned real good right now You better get it straight darling Poor man wanna be rich Rich man wanna be king And a king ain't satisfied Till 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 love that you gave me I believe in the faith that could save me I believe in the hope And I pray that some day It may raise me above these [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus]
