Killers, The

Battle Born
You lost faith in the human spiritYou walk around like a ghostYour star-spangled heartTook a train for the coastWhen you shine you're a hilltop mansionSo how'd you lose the light?Was it blown by the wind,In the still of the night?We're up against the wallUp against the wallThere's something dying on the streetWhen they knock you downYou're gonna get back on your feet(No you can't stop now)I always saw you as a kind of keeperA mother to a childBut your boys have grown softAnd your girls have gone wildFrom the blue ranch to the black hillsTo the redwood skyThe season may passSongtexteBut the dream doesn't dieWhy did you drop the ball?Up against the wallThere's something dying on the streetWhen they knock you downYou're gonna get back on your feet(No you can't stop now)When they break your heartWhen they cause your soul to mournRemember what I saidBoy you was battle born(No, you can't stop now)You was battle bornWhen the night falls on the landAre you haunted by the sound?It's gonna take more than a handTo turn this thing aroundWon't you lean it on me?Rescue, set me freeUp against the wall (Up against the wall)There's something dying on the streetWhen they knock you down (Up against the wall)You're gonna get back on your feetCause you can't stop now (Cause you can't stop now)Did they break your heart? (Did they break your heart?)And did they cause your soul to mournRemember what I saidBoy you was battle bornCause you can't stop now (Cause you can't stop now)Come on show your faceCome on give us one more sparkSo we'll start a fireUnless we fall into the darkAnd you can't stop now (No, you can't stop now)You never knowIf you never learnYou never shineIf you never burnThe rising tideThe undertowThe venom andThe overflowYou turn awayWelcome home Aus Songtexte Mania
