Down To the Wire Songtext
von Seth Glier

There′s a place in my heart
Nobody's ever been
Likes to tear itself down
Have I ever loved anything?
Plated and encased
Flawed by design
If you can get below the surface
There is lightning inside

In truth and admission
I′m afraid of rejection
If I strip down to it
There's shield and there's only protection

Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Take me down


I still cry in my sleep
I know you′ve heard me before
It′s that reoccurring dream
Where I will never amount to more
Than the voices in my head
You can get them to be quiet
Could your love be the lineman
Who rewires the circuits

With hope and passion
I'm afraid of rejection
If I strip right through it
I′m bound to make that connection

Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Take me down

You can dig deeper than anyone before
Blow the hinges off the door
See my beauty, see my disgrace
Will you still know my face
When we go down to the wire?


Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Take me down
Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Down to the wire
Take me down
