Urbanites - Badlands Lyrics

It grows like a bad seed
And brings pain and confusion like there's no other state of mind
I am always somewhere in between

Badlands deep in my heart
They've made me judge and criticize before I came to realize
That changes must start from a place within

Wide awake and on the run
You want a remedy to knock you out
Gonna say you're out of luck
You ask your enemy to shoot you down

To shoot you down

Don't stop, cause comfort kills
You may not see the subtle signs which everyday and every hour
Tell us not to try, but to stand still

Wide awake and on the run
You want a remedy to knock you out
Gonna say you're out of luck
You ask your enemy to shoot you down

To shoot you down

Now the clear break of dawn comes to shake my twisted thoughts
Couldn't breath, couldn't talk, couldn't find a way to move on
Am I still dead and gone, am I right or wrong?
