Gun Lyrics

You had better run from me
With everything you own
'Cause I am gonna come for you
With all that I have

I am gonna break you down
To tiny, tiny parts
I never believed but I see it now
I'm learning your lesson

Did it make you feel so clever?
Did you wear it on your sleeve?
Did you see another picture
Where I was not a part so far entwined?

There is no other way, never run far
Take a good swing at me and everything is even so
Finally we agree, no place for promises here
You'd better run, you'd better run so

Hide, hide, I have burned your bridges
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for
Hide, hide, now it's all so easy
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for

Who are you to tell me how
To keep myself afloat?
I treaded water all the while
You stuck in the knife that you held at my back

Did it make you feel so clever?
Did you wear it on your sleeve?
Did you see another lifetime?
Where I was not a part so far entwined?

There is no other way, never run far
Take a good swing at me and everything is even so
Finally we agree, no place for promises here
You'd better run, you'd better run so

Hide, hide, I have burned your bridges
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for
Hide, hide, now it's all so easy
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for

There is no other way, never run far
Take a good swing at me and everything is even so
Finally we agree, no place for promises here
You'd better run, you'd better run so

Hide, hide, I have burned your bridges
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for
Hide, hide, now it's all so easy
I will be a gun and it's you I'll come for

And it's you I'll come for
And it's you I'll come for
And it's you I'll come for
and it's you I'll come for

And I'm gonna see that you won't go far
And I'm gonna see that you won't go far
And I'm gonna see that you won't go far
And I'm gonna see that you won't go far

CHVRCHES (pronounced as "churches") are a Scottish electronic band from Glasgow, formed in 2011. The group consists of Lauren Mayberry (lead vocals, occasionally synths and samplers), Iain Cook (synths, guitar, bass, vocals) and Martin Doherty (synths, samplers, vocals). The group's debut album, The Bones of What You Believe, was released on 20 September 2013.

Previously, Mayberry was a member of the bands Boyfriend/Girlfriend and Blue Sky Archives. Mayberry is a trained drummer and also did a four-year law degree, followed by a Masters in journalism. Cook was a member of Aereogramme and The Unwinding Hours and also wrote music for film and TV. Doherty was a live member of The Twilight Sad. According to Mayberry, "Iain and Martin went to university together so they've known each other for quite a long time".

The band started in October 2011 as a studio project between the long time friends Iain Cook and Martin Doherty. Cook already knew Lauren Mayberry from working with Blue Sky Archives and suggested her as a potential vocalist for the project.

CHVRCHES were influenced by acts such as Prince, Tubeway Army, Robyn, Depeche Mode, Kate Bush, Cocteau Twins, Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston and Laurie Anderson. The band write, record, mix and master everything in a basement studio in Glasgow.

In May 2012, they released the song "Lies". In the same year, CHVRCHES toured with Passion Pit, as the opening band for their concerts and also toured on their own. "Lies" ranked at number 28 on NME's Best Tracks of 2012. CHVRCHES also came fifth on the BBC's Sound of 2013 list.

On 25 March 2013, they released Recover EP. They performed at SXSW and won the Inaugural Grulke Prize (for Developing Non-US Act). The band also supported Depeche Mode on four shows in July during their The Delta Machine Tour 2013.

On 20 September 2013, CHVRCHES released their debut album, The Bones of What You Believe. The album is supported by the singles "The Mother We Share", "Recover" and "Gun".
