Down to the Wire Songtext
von Low Orbit

I live a life that′s well defined
Keep myself between those lines
I am a slave to this routine
My coffee and my nicotine
I only want an easy life
Don't want no stress, don′t want no strife
Then you keep knocking at my door
Like a wrecking ball

Rolling in just like a storm
To wash away and be reborn
Rise like a phoenix from the flame

You take it right down to the wire
Right at the last you take me higher
Foot on the gas and overdrive
Makes you feel alive
You take it right down to the wire
Holding on til I expire
Foot on the gas and overdrive
You make me feel alive


Each and every day it feels the same
A million faces have no names
A million voices scream and shout
But the inner voices drown them out
Feel like you're lost inside the crowd
The inner voice will cry out loud
But you make everything alright
Set the world alight

Rolling in just like a storm
To wash away and be reborn
Rise like a phoenix from the flame

You take it right down to the wire
Right at the last you take me higher
Foot on the gas and overdrive
Makes you feel alive
You take it right down to the wire
Holding on til I expire
Foot on the gas and overdrive
You make me feel alive

You live inside each moment
Take both your hands and hold it
In life there ain't no guarantees
Make sure the juice is worth the squeeze
Live every day like its your last
Not in the future or the past
Nothing is ever as it seems
Making reality from dreams


Rolling in just like a storm
To wash away and be reborn
Rise like a phoenix from the flame

You take it right down to the wire
Right at the last you take me higher
Foot on the gas and overdrive
Makes you feel alive
You take it right down to the wire
Holding on til I expire
Foot on the gas and overdrive
You make me feel alive

You take it right down to the wire
Right at the last you take me higher
Foot on the gas and overdrive
Makes you feel alive
You take it right down to the wire
Holding on til I expire
Foot on the gas and overdrive
You make me feel alive
