[Boygenius - Badlands lyrics]
Lights out tonight, trouble in the heartland
Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts
Man i'm caught in a crossfire
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
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
Don't waste your time waiting
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as
The price you've gotta pay
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, darling
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 could save me
I believe in the hope and
I pray that some day
It will raise me above these
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as
The price you've gotta pay
Keep pushin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
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
Keep pushin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good
Whoa whoa whoa whoa badlands
Whoa whoa whoa whoa badlands
Whoa whoa whoa whoa badlands
Whoa whoa whoa whoa badlands
Whoa whoa whoa whoa
Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts
Man i'm caught in a crossfire
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
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
Don't waste your time waiting
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand as

Keep pushin' 'til it's understood
And these badlands start treating us good
