Badlands Serenade letra

Sleeping in the badlands too stoned to dream
Inhaled all the opiates and licked all the ketamine
Everyone tells me how much they lost
But a real man can give the love he's never got

Picking through some new tunes the old ones don't shine
When you ain't got a new muse you got to improvise
You've been lonely for so long it feels like company
But a real man can give the love he's never seen

It's just a bunch of short ones now, the long ones they don't last
After the drugs wear off and compromise seems like a drag
But you know I would drive all night till there ain't no more road
'Cause a real man can give the love he's never known
