Under the gun


You don't have to say you're sorry
To look on further down the line
Into the sun
Too close that heaven
Love is fine
But you can't hold it like a ...
Two worlds apart, two together
Into that good night kiss away
Into that good night kiss away
One takes the hard, one the other
Kiss away
Are you living for love ?
Are you living for love ?
When the road gets too tough
Is your love strong enough ?
Are you living ?
Are you living for love ?
Are you living for love ?
Are you living ?
Are you living for love ?
Are you living for love ?
Do you feel your head is full of thunder ?
Questions never end ?
Empty nights alone ?
No wonder
It all comes back again
Are you living for love ?
Are you living for love ?
I've been under the gun
I've lost and I've ...
Are you living for love ?
Are you living for love ?
I've been under the gun
I'm lost and I've won ..
Forget the many steps to heaven
It never happened and it ain't so hard
Happiness is a loaded weapon and a
Short cut is better by far
Explosive bolts, ten thousand volts
At a million miles an hour
Abrasive wheels and molten metals
It's a semi-automatic, get in the car
Corrosive heart and frozen heat
We're worlds apart where we could meet
Where the street fold round and the motors start
And the idiot wields the power
Where the chosen hold the highest card
On the field of honour where the ground is hard
So the highest hand is joking wild
And the house soon fold and no one stands
I put my finger on and dialled
The tower, the moon, the gun, and
Nine nine nine, singer down
Cloudburst and all around
The first are last, the blessed get wired
The best is yet to come
I put my finger on and fired
Heat-seeking, out of the sun
You can set the controls for the heart or the knees
And the meek'll inherit what they damn well please
Get ahead, go figure, go ahead and pull the trigger
Everything under the gun

Thank you because you correct this lyrics

Biografia

The Sisters of Mercy are a British gothic rock band that emerged from the post-punk scene in the late 1970s. Founded in Leeds in 1980 by Andrew Eldritch (vocals), the group has undergone several lineup changes throughout its history, with Paul Hession (guitar) and Wayne Hussey (guitar) among the longest-serving members. Their sound, characterized by dark atmospheres, sinister melodies, and introspective lyrics, quickly propelled them into the British goth underground. In the mid-1980s, The Sisters of Mercy achieved significant commercial success with albums like *First and Last and Always* (1985) and *Vision Thing* (1987), which introduced their sound to a wider audience. Tracks such as «Temple of Love», «This Corrosion» and «Lucretia My Reflection» became classics of the gothic rock genre. After a series of disagreements with their record label, the group ceased releasing new material in 1990. Although they have had periods of inactivity, The Sisters of Mercy returned to live performances in the 1990s and have continued to record music sporadically. Their last studio album is *Floodland* (1987).
