Barrel of a Gun [Underworld Soft Mix] Lyrics

[Intro]
Been staring down the barrel of a gun
Been staring down the barrel of a gun
Been staring down the barrel of a gun
Been staring down the barrel of a gun
I'm not the one
Whatever I've done

[Verse 1]
Do you mean this horny creep
Set upon weary feet
Who looks in need of sleep
That doesn't come?

[Hook]
Been staring down the barrel of a gun

[Verse 2]
This twisted, tortured mess
This bed of sinfulness
Who's longing for some rest
And feeling numb

[Hook]
Been staring down the barrel of a gun
[Interlude]
I'm not the one
I'm not the one

[Verse 4]
An unbearable pain
A beating in my brain
That leaves the mark of Cain
Right here inside

[Verse 3]
A vicious appetite
Visits me each night
And won't be satisfied
Won't be denied

[Post-Chorus]
I'm not the one
Whatever I've done
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
Whatever I've done
I've been staring down the barrel of a gun
Whatever I've done

[Coda]
Whatever I've done

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
