| 53 | ||
| 54 | > You're talking to strangers and walking on razors | |
| 55 | > Your touch growing stranger | |
| 56 | ||
| 57 | - | /Legs\ open's with a pleasant riff leading up to a more metal mini-solo. /Legs\ also features Jesse's more aggressive screams which suit the high-bass drums and metal guitar riffs. The vocals and instrumentals help convey the seriousness of the lyrics regarding the dangerous woman. |

| 64 | ||
| 65 | Badlands is one of the more slower songs, showing a true gift for creating post-hardcore music. The lyrics depict a narrative between someone in love with someone who doesn't feel the same. Over the course of the song, although the protagonist is aware, they keep allowing the other to take advantage. The name of the song, Badlands, defines the state of the love between the two mentioned in the song. It's an eroded open space of land meaning there once was an equal amount of love which has worn away over time such as plants and vegetation erodes to nothing. | |
| 66 | ||
| 67 | Although making an appearance on *itDjents* notable songs from their album *review* - and a personal favourite - it did not amass too much comparing Badlands to other songs in the album the YouTube. With the video only amassing 7,000 (as of 19/12/2017) making Badlands the sixth most popular from the album. | |
