To The Wire

I want to cut myself
Cut myself down
Before it's too late
I want to touch solid ground
I want to talk myself talk myself round
But all the words fail they don't make a sound
A hanging photograph edge of the trees to California
You were the star above us all a battle cry for when we fall
Stay in my heart out of sight you're hard to find
Wake from the start cross the line and cut the wire
I only numb myself when I feel I could drown
No I won't break I'm gonna turn this one around
I get this feeling like
Jump from a moving train or I'm falling from a great height
Am I losing this war with myself?
I'm on the frontline this could be hell
But I see through the cracks and these eyes
Are fixed on a hole in the dirt
But I'll stay in the sand until I know it's time to finally wake up
Stay in my heart out of sight you're hard to find
Wake from the start cross the line and cut the wire
A solid light a lone dancer too afraid to hear the answer
A new new sound down
To the wire
