Meaning behind Badlands by Springsteen? lyrics posted?

This is one of my favorite songs, because of the beat. Lately Ive been trying to pay more attention to the lyrics, but I'm at a loss as to what the main point of the song is. Some lines are obvious, but as a whole itsover my head...any help will be appreciated.

Lights out tonight trouble in the heartland

Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts man

I'm caught in a crossfire that I don't understand

but there's one thing I know for sure girl

I don't give a damn for the same old played out scenes

I don't give a damn for just the in betweens

Honey I want the heart, I want the soul, I want control right now

you better listen to me baby

Talk about a dream try to make it real

You wake up in the night with a fear so real

You spend your life waitin' for a moment that just won't come

Well don't waste your time waiting

Badlands you gotta live it everyday

Let the broken heart stand it's the price you gotta pay

We'll keep pushin' till it's understood and these badlands start

treating us good

Workin' in the fields till you get your back burned

Workin' 'neath the wheel till you get your facts learned

Baby I got my facts learned real good right now

you better get it straight darlin'

Poor man wanna be rich rich man wanna be king

And a king ain't satisfied till he rules everything

I wanna go out tonight I wanna find out what I got

I believe in the love that you gave me

I believe in the faith that can save me

I believe in the hope and I pray that some day it may raise me

above these

Badlands....

Mmmm mmmm mmmm...

For the ones who had a notion a notion deep inside

That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive

I wanna find one face that ain't lookin' through me

I wanna find one place I wanna spit in the face of these

Badlands....

Whoa whoa whoa whoa Badlands....

    Badlands is about a guy who isn't getting what he wants out of life. He's tired of the same old-same old and knows that there is something bigger out there. He feels the his surroundings are holding him back and that the people around him are simply settling for living humdrum lives when they could be so much more - and he dislikes them because they don't strive for anything more.

    And he's not going to just settle in and be like them.

    Badlands--replaces the "heartlands"--a superficial place where, according to what he's learned, no one is content with what they have because they haven't experienced the fulfillment of pursuing a personal dream. The dream--the hope--won't be realized if you simply wait for it to happen. Be ready to be beat down, for your heart to be broken, by those who would take advantage of what success you glean from following your dream. Keep following your heart; take strength in the fact that there are others still following their dreams--this is the place where you'll find the faces of people who SEE you and the gifts you have been given and, because they love their lives, will applaud and support your personal success. Ya gotta have faith; it won't be easy, but if you hang tough and keep on a path that fulfills you, someday .......(well, one can hope, can't one?)

    Oh YAY I LOVE this song.

    Badlands is a song in my opinion about the working class man who because of his day to day life has more knowledge about life as a whole than the man surrounded by material goods. Badlands is about the power of love and the overated pressures of money on people. Badlands is for every man/women who comes home see's their family and thinks we may not have it all but were happy

    @ozarkteller - love your point of view. Thanks for sharing it; sometimes it feels like we write things on the web and no one will care about it. But even if you only enrichen one person's life, that is quite an accomplishment. Take care.
