The Killers

歌詞

You lost faith in the human spirit You walk around like a ghost And your star-spangled heart Took a train for the coast And 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? You're up against the wall Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet (Cause you can't stop now) I always saw you as a kind of keeper A 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 A season may pass But the dream doesn't die No don't you drop the ball Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet (Cause you can't stop now) And when they break your heart And when they cause your soul to mourn Remember what I said Boy, you was battle born (No you can't stop now) You was battle born And when the night falls on the land Are you haunted by the sound? It's gonna take more than a hand To turn this thing around Don't you lean it on me Rescue, set me free Up against the wall There's something dying on the street When they knock you down You're gonna get back on your feet (Cause you can't stop now) Did they break your heart And did they call your soul to mourn Remember what I said Boy you was battle born (Cause you can't stop now) Come on show your face Come on give us one more spark We'll sing a song of fire Lest we fall into the dark You never live, your never learn You never shine, if you never burn The rising tide, the undertow The famine and the overflow The turn away, the welcome home
