Lyrics

Translation
Bilingual
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?
We're up against the wall
Up against the wall
There's something dying out on the street
When they knock you down
You're gonna get back on your feet
No, 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
The season may pass
But the dream doesn't die
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 gonna get back on your feet
No, 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
No, you can't stop now
ย
You was battle born
ย
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
Won'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 (up against the wall)
You're gonna get back on your feet
No, you can't stop now 'cause you can't stop now
Did they break your heart?
And did they cause your soul to mourn?
Remember what I said
Boy, you was battle born
No, you can't stop now 'cause you can't stop now
Come on, show your face
Come on give us one more spark
Sing a song of fire
Lest we fall into the dark
No, you can't stop now 'cause 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
