The Cult

The Cult are a British rock band formed in 1983. They gained a dedicated following in Britain in the mid 1980s as a post-punk band with singles such as "She Sells Sanctuary", before breaking mainstream in the United States in the late 1980s as a hard rock band with singles such as "Love Removal Machine" and "Fire Woman". The band fuse a "heavy metal revivalist" sound with the "pseudo-mysticism ... of The Doors [and] the guitar-orchestrations of Led Zeppelin ... while adding touches of post-punk goth rock". Since their earliest form in Bradford during 1981, the band have had various line-ups; the longest-serving members are vocalist Ian Astbury and guitarist Billy Duffy, the band's two songwriters. more »

Survival of the fittest, baby
Yeah, you thought that life was so damn easy
You try to run before you crawl
Yeah, the innocent 'til they prove you guilty

You got yourself some bad information
Yeah, a victim of ill communication
You can run but you just can't hide
Baby, you gotta let it ride

Baby, guilty
Gonna steal your heart

You burn brightly in the darkness alone, oh
You burn brightly in the dark

And run on our own
Yes, we hide, though our hearts are breaking
Run on our own, on our own

Survival of the fittest, baby
Yeah, you thought that life was so damn easy
You try to run before you crawl
Say you're innocent 'til they prove you guilty

Got yourself some bad information
Yeah, a victim of ill communication
You can run but you just can't hide
Baby, you gotta let it ride

Guilty, let it ride
Steal your heart

You burn brightly in the darkness alone, oh
You burn brightly in the dark

And run on our own
Yes, we hide, though our hearts are breaking
Run on our own, on our own

You burn brightly in the darkness, alone, oh
You burn brightly in the dark

And run on our own
Yes, we hide, though our hearts are breaking
Run on our own, on our own
