Battle Born |
You lost faith in the human spirit |
You walk around like a ghost |
Your Star Spangled heart |
Took a train for the coast |
When you shine you’re a hill top mansion |
So how’d you lose the light? |
Was it blown by the wind in the still of the night? |
You’re up against the wall |
Up against the wall |
There’s something dying on the street |
When they knock you down |
You’re gonna get back on your feet |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
I always saw you as a kind of keeper |
A mother to a child |
But your boys have grown soft |
And your girls have gone wild |
From the blue ridge to the black hills |
To the redwood sky |
The season may pass But the dream doesn’t die |
Now that you dropped the ball |
You’re up against the wall |
There’s something dying on the street |
When they knock you down |
You’re gonna get back on your feet |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
When they break your heart |
And when they cause your soul to mourn |
Remember what I said, «Boy, you was Battle Born» |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
You was Battle Born |
When the night falls on the land |
Are you haunted by the sound |
It’s gonna take more than a hand |
To turn this thing around |
Do you need a little relief, rescue? |
Set me free |
Up against the wall |
(Up against the wall) |
There’s something dying on the street |
When they knock you down |
(Up against the wall) |
You’re gonna get back on your feet |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
Did they break your heart |
(Did they break your heart) |
Did they cause your soul to mourn |
Remember what I said, «Boy, you was Battle Born» |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
Come on, show your face |
Come on, give us one more spark |
Sing a song of fire Let’s then fall into the dark |
(Cause you can’t stop now) |
You never live |
If you never learn |
You never shine |
If you never burn |
The rising tide |
The undertow |
The filling in The overflow |
Turn away |
Welcome home |
