I've never seen a man stand so tall I've never seen a man, a rebel without a cause I see myself in him, back against a brick wall I see myself in him, forgot who I was In the Badlands, these are dark times I'll keep driving on until I see the sunrise I never hurt no one who didn't have it coming Until I see the sun, I'll keep the engine running Born and raised in Lincoln, I am a carpenter's son Born and raised in Lincoln, I am everyone If I could only see what they say I did in that station If I could only see the things they say I've done In the Badlands, these are dark times I'll keep driving on until I see the sunrise I never hurt no one who didn't have it coming Until I see the sun, I'll keep the engine running ♪ These are dark times in the Badlands Where some do evil things others won't understand His excuses, pay no mind to them Do not lose your faith over acts of evil men
