The Chemical Brothers
Battle Scars
[Intro]
There's no path to follow
There's no path to follow

[Verse 1]
There's a line in the sand
Put there by a man
By a man whose children built the castles made of stone
There's a man in the sky
Giving reasons why
That line grows deeper like the shackles round our bones

[Chorus 1]
Move on to my own
Here come battle scars
It's the final charge
Here come battle scars

[Verse 2]
There's a child born
To a land of scorn
Sneaks past the borders and the lords that hold his hand
He was led like a lamb
All part of the plan
This castle crumbles as he walks out of this land
[Chorus 2]
Move on to my own
Here come battle scars
It's the final charge
Here come battle scars
This is what we own
Here come battle scars
This is where we are
Here come battle scars

[Refrain]
There's no path to follow
There's no path to follow
There's no path to follow

[Bridge]
Living for the reasons of the dead that moved to
Paper from their heads into my fingers
And my deadly view is strangled by the rent
I have no purpose in this land have I forgotten how to stand up
With the humor and the need I've got to find a way to be
I just turn up the stereo I can't survive without the cold
This culture's fallen off its feet I've got to find a brand new beat
Beat, (beat) beat
Beat, (beat) beat
Beat, (beat) beat
[Verse 3]
There's a road ahead
Between the live and dead
Church bells are ringing like the panic in my head

[Outro]
Step, step, one by one
Walk into the setting sun
Water's rising, rising fast
History catching up at last
Danger ahead, death behind
No one to follow but old man time
Time, time, take us back before the line was drawn
Before the sky turned black
