|
In the desert sun every step that you take could be the final one
|
In the burning heat hanging on the edge of destruction
|
You can't stop the pain of your children crying out in your head
|
They always said that the living would envy the dead
|
|
So now you're gonna shoot bullets of fire
|
Don't wanna fight but sometimes you've got to
|
You're some soul survivor
|
There's just one thing you've got to know
|
You've got ten more thousand miles to go
|
|
Because you're one of the living
|
And if we can't stick together
|
One of the living
|
Who's gonna make it tonight
|
|
Walk tall, cool, collected and savage
|
Walk tall, bruised, sensual, ravaged
|
It's every man for himself, every woman, every child
|
A new breed, ferocious and wild
|
|
And all they want to do is shoot bullets of fire
|
They wanna fight and sometimes you've got to
|
You're some soul survivor
|
There's just one thing you've got to know
|
You've got ten more thousand years to go
|
|
Because you're one of the living
|
And if we can't stick together
|
One of the living
|
Who's gonna make it tonight
|
