歌詞: Metal Church. Blessing In Disguise. Badlands.

I ride alone, the wasteland that I cross
Will take another life, we'll take another loss
I feel the dry wind, dust is in my eyes
The arctic cold at night, the earth, it tells me lies

God in heaven, my only friend
Will I live to see my journey's end?

As the world awakens me so hard
My values have been changed
I make a promise to myself
Never again

A dusty godforsaken path
Endless to my dismay
I know these are the badlands
Somehow I'll find my way

No more paradise, no more soothing rain
All the sacrifice, the pain is all the same
Still I'm pushing onward, alone I can't deny
My presence fills the desert, my spirit never dies

Will these lonely nights ever end?
Will I live to see my journey's end?

As the world awakens me so hard
My values have been changed
I make a promise to myself
Never again

A dusty godforsaken path
Endless to my dismay
I know these are the badlands
Somehow I'll find my way

The vultures that circle, cloud the empty sky
Patiently waiting, they wait for me to die
Tortured and beaten, blistered by the sun
Forceful and heartless, have the badlands won?

But still I'm pushing onward, alone I can't deny
My presence fills the desert, my spirit never dies

As the world awakens me so hard
My values have been changed
I make a promise to myself
Never again

A dusty godforsaken path
Endless to my dismay
I know these are the badlands
Somehow I'll find my way
