For The Wire
You’ve got a message that’s straight for me
Apologetic, but not sorry
I can see you holding out
I can see you holding out
And I see you sitting on that fence
You hold it up, but it makes no sense
And I sympathize with what you said
But the difficulty’s in your head
Now you’re sending it off to me
One more argument, or can’t you see?
I can see you running out
I can see you running out
And I see you straddling that line
You swing below, but there ain’t much time
Pull yourself up before you’re dead
The difficulty’s in your head
For the wire
Now you’re sending it off to me
One more argument, or can’t you see?
I can see you holding out
I can see you holding out
And I see you sitting on that fence
You hold it up, but it makes no sense
And I sympathize with what you said
But the difficulty’s in your head
