Black Star Riders

Lyrics Standing in the line of fire Black Star Riders

 647

Standing in the line of fire


I'll take another shot whiskey
On second thoughts you better make it two
I've got a lot on my mind today
And we've got a lot of drinking to do

So long live life, love and retribution
Long live life, love and revolution
Rock, paper, scissors and dynamite
When everything's starting to feel alright

I'm better off alone than in bad company
Why can't you take the hint, why can't you let me be
I'm losing control I've got no desire
Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

Standing in the line of fire

I'm a simple man
With a complicated life
I fell in love with a switchblade
She's a hell of a knife

Never in question never in doubt
Don't give up on something you can't live without
Everyone's got a little blood in this mess
When you win say nothing when you lose say less

I'm better off alone than in bad company
Why can't you take the hint, why can't you let me be
I'm losing control I've got no desire
Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

So long live life, love and retribution
Long live life, love and revolution
Rock, paper, scissors and dynamite
When everything's starting to feel alright

I'm not asking for mercy I'm not asking for time
Sometimes I ask myself am I the last of my kind?
I'm losing control I got no desire
Out in the open, standing in the line of fire

Standing in the line of fire
Standing in the line of fire

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

Black Star Riders is a hard rock band formed in 2012 by some members of the legendary Thin Lizzy. The project was born from the intention to record new material without using the historic name, but the legacy of Thin Lizzy is evident in the musical soul of Black Star Riders. Considered "the next step in the evolution of the history of Thin Lizzy", BSR is a full-time band that stands out for its powerful and melodic sound, with influences from classic hard rock and a touch of Celtic rock. Among the most representative songs are "Bound for Glory", "Soldierstown" and "All Hell Breaks Loose". Their self-titled debut album (2013) was well received by critics and fans, consolidating the band's position in the international hard rock scene.
