Down To The Wire

I'm no wallflower
Can’t tell me you can shake this
No, we're not weak
Just uninspired in this mess

Like a breath like a kiss
You came in
Who knows what lies
Under our skin

[Chorus]
Look at us now
Out of the fire
We're taken down
Down to the wire

Tried on the crux
Broke all the stops
Fallen away
Forgetting love
Don’t want to live
Like a bird on the wire
No, like a bird on the wire

We're only tired
Cause we've been sleepwalking
No, I'm not quiet
Just sick and tired of talking

Like a breath like a kiss
You came in
I feel the ground groaning back down
And I just can't hear

[Chorus]
Look at us now
Out of the fire
Taking it down
Down to the wire

Tried on the crux
Broke through the stops
Falling away
To forgotten love
Don't want to live
Like a bird on the wire
Like a bird on the wire
Like a bird on the wire
Like a bird on the wire
Like a bird on the wire
