Battle Ground

Blood rushing thru your veins,
Walking thru the open gate
Swear you'd never walk back in
After all that fear and hate

A ticket for the bus
To take you anywhere
You could start all over again
You would you could but oh no
Oh no

Out of the light
Diving into the dark
Back to the scene of the crime
You knew you couldn't take it,
You couldn't settle down
You're home when the night comes around,
Falling over battle ground

The town has changed so much
That you don't know where to start
So you call the only ones you know
The thieves and whores at Sally's bar

You could say no to trouble
When trouble's asking for you
You could turn a new page
You would if you could, but oh no, oh no

Out of the light
Diving into the dark
Back to the scene of the crime
Well you know you couldn't take
You couldn't settle down
You know there's still life to be found
Beyond the battle ground

Oh no, battleground
Battleground, oh no

The same old faces in the
Shady side of town
Seek for salvation
In a world turned upside down

The truth you're facing puts a dagger thru your heart
You can't break the circle and there's no way out

Out of the light
Diving into the dark
Back to the scene of the crime
Well you know you couldn't take
You couldn't settle down
You know there's still life to be found
Beyond the battle ground

Out of the light
Diving into the dark
Back to the scene of the crime
Well you know you couldn't take
You couldn't settle down
You know there's still life to be found
Beyond the battle ground
