Finger On The Trigger
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I go down fighting-thunder, lighting
As the final curtain falls
Although enlightening, the conclusion’s frightening
You have me by the balls
No escape, no hand of fate
As the end comes into view
Oblivion calling, no sense stalling
Now I know it’s all because of you
You got your finger on the trigger
You got your hand upon the gun
You know this thing is getting bigger
We had a good thing going on
The bullet bitten
My tombstone’s written
Now you’re changing every line
Your aim is true
Through cold steel blue
And you’re waiting for the sign
Don’t think twice, cold as ice
Forced to face your fear
Each tortured minute, no future in it
Now I know it’s all because of you
You got your finger on the trigger
You got your hand upon the gun
You know this thing is getting bigger
We had a good thing going on
Just where you been, girl
Black as sin, girl
