Metal Church - Badlands Lyrics
I ride alone, the wasteland that I crossWill take another life, we'll take another lossI feel a dry wind, dust is in my eyesThe artic cold at night, the earth, it tells me liesGod in heaven, my only friendWill I live to see my journey's end?As the world awakens me so hard, my values have been changedI make a promise to myself: Never againA dusty godforsaken path, endless to my dismayI know these are the badlands, somehow I'll find my wayNo more paradise, no more soothing rainAll the sacrifice, the pain is all the sameStill I'm pushing onward, alone I can't denyMy presence fills the desert, my spirit never diesWill these lonely nights ever end?Will I live to see my journey's end?As the world awakens me so hard, my values have been changedI make a promise to myself: Never againA dusty godforsaken path, endless to my dismayI know these are the badlands, somehow I'll find my wayThe vultures that circle, cloud the empty sky,Patiently waiting, they wait for me to dieTortured and beaten, blistered by the sunForceful and heartless, have the badlands won?Still I'm pushing onward, alone I can't denyMy presence fills the desert, my spirit never diesAs the world awakens me so hard, my values have been changedI make a promise to myself: Never againA dusty godforsaken path, endless to my dismayI know these are the badlands, somehow I'll find my way
