The BadLands

Lyrics & Music By: Metal Church

The vultures that circle, cloud the empty sky Patiently waiting, they wait for me to die. Tortured and beaten, blistered by the sun. Forceful and heartless, have the badlands won? But still I’m pushing onward alone I can’t deny, My presence fills the desert, my spirit never dies. As the world awakens me so hard my values Haven’t changed. I make a promise to myself, Never again. A dusty god forsaken path endless to my dismay. I know these are the badlands, Somehow I’ll find my way.

No more paradise, no more soothing rain, All a sacrifice, the pain is all the same. Still I’m pushing onward alone I can’t deny, My presence fills the desert, my spirit never dies. Will these lonely nights ever end? Will I live to see my journey’s end? As the world awakens me so hard my values Haven’t changed. I make a promise to myself, Never again. A dusty god forsaken path endless to my dismay. I know these are the badlands, Somehow I’ll find my way.

I ride alone, the wasteland that I cross. Will take another life, will take another loss I feel a dry wind, the dust is in my eyes. The artic cold at night, the Earth it tells me lies. God in heaven, my only friend will I live to See my journey’s end? As the world awakens me so hard my values Haven’t changed. I make a promise to myself, Never again. A dusty god forsaken path endless to my dismay. I know these are the badlands, somehow I’ll Find my way.
