Metaphysical Pistol Lyrics - The Cult

When I look in your eyes 

I see a burning star 

I see a heart that's wild 

I see a place I can't define 

Your mind is sharp 

You don't miss a beat 

You see right through people 

Who can't see into you 

Is life just a trip from ... the maternity ward to the creamatory 

Is life just a trip from ... the maternity ward to the creamatory 

Your slight smile 

Holds me wrapped for a while 

And they can't pull me down 

Pull us down 

Pull us down 

Soul of flesh 

Burn bright in your hair 

Yeah people get scared 

They don't understand 

Hw beautiful you are 

Mistakes... money... sex... yourself... power... these are all false gods 

Metaphysical pistol with a gut full of hate 

Metaphysical pistol with a heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol with a gut full of hate 

Metaphysical pistol with a heart full of light 

Soul of flesh 

Burn bright in your hair 

Yeah people get scared 

They don't understand 

How beautiful you are 

Metaphysical pistol with a gut full of hate 

Metaphysical pistol with a heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol metaphysical pistol 

Metaphysical pistol with a heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol with a gut full of hate 

Metaphysical pistol with a heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol with a gut full of hate 

We are sitting smack in the middle... of the beatific vision 

Heart full of light - money 

Gut full of hate - sex 

Heart full of light - power 

Gut full of hate - yourself 

Heart full of light - mistakes 

Gut full of hate - these are all false gods 

Heart full of light - vision 

Gut full of hate - vision 

Heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol with... 

Gut full of hate 

Metaphysical pistol with... 

Heart full of light 

Metaphysical pistol with... 

Gut full of hate 

Heart full of light... 

Gut full of hate...
