the killers – battle born lyrics
[verse 1]
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 hilltop mansion
so how’d you lose the light
was it blown by the wind
in the still of the night
[chorus]
up against the wall
up against the wall
there’s something dying on the street
when they knock you down
you’re going to get back on your feet
(and you can’t stop now)
[verse 2]
i always saw you as a kind of keeper
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 p-ss
but the dream doesn’t die
[chorus]
now don’t you drop the ball
up against the wall
there’s something dying on the street
when they knock you down
you’re going to get back on your feet
(and you can’t stop now)
[verse 3]
when they break your heart
when the night falls on the land
remember what i said
boy you was battle born
(and you can’t stop now)
you was battle born
when the night falls on the land
are you haunted by the sound
it’s going to take more than a hand
to turn this thing around
won’t you lean it on me?
rescue set me free
[chorus]
up against the wall
up against the wall
there’s something dying on the street
when they knock you down
you’re going to get back on your feet
(and you can’t stop now)
when they break your heart
when they cause your soul to mourn
remember what i said
boy you was battle born
(and you can’t stop now)
[outro]
come on show your face
come on give us one more spark
sing a song on fire
lest we fall into the dark
and you can’t stop now (no, you can’t stop now)
you never live
you never learn
you never shine
if you never burn
the rising tide
the undertow
the famine and
the overflow
you turn away
welcome home
