“Wire” is the third track from the Yearbook – January EP. The title “Wires” has two meanings, as stated by Ryan:
because of the digital nature of the song, I thought it felt like a fitting title.
just about every lyric in this song refers to a “wire” of sorts.
[Verse 1]
Carefully cut the wire and wait
Life is a series of narrow escapes
A chain reaction
A loose thread that we must pull
The birth of religion (Life is a series of narrow escapes)
In the challenge of the unknown
But all desperation leads to a fork in the road
We live for understanding or for control
So very carefully we'll cut the wire and wait
[Verse 2]
With one eye closed, we'll draw back
Catch our breath and let go
Time is the string in between
The arrow and the bow
If there's one thing we've learned
As our pulse returns
Timing is everything
It's everything
If life is a series of narrow escapes
We're shifting our weight in this tightrope ballet
We're down to the wire
(Life is a series of narrow escapes)
Down to the wire
(Life is a series of narrow escapes)
We're down to the wire
Down to the wire
Wires was written by Ryan O’Neal.
Sleeping At Last released Wires on Sat Jan 01 2011.
