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 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 ranch to the black hills To the redwood sky The season may pass But the dream doesn't die
Why did 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)
You was battle born
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 (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 (Cause you can't stop now) (Cause you can't stop now)
Did they break your heart? (Did they break your heart?) And did they cause your soul to mourn Remember what I said Boy you was battle born (Cause you can't stop now) (Cause you can't stop now)
Come on show your face Come on give us one more spark So we'll start a fire Unless we fall into the dark (And you can't stop now) (No, you can't stop now)
