Wires

The Neighbourhood

9

We talked about making it

I'm sorry that you never made it

And it pains me just to hear you have to say it

You knew the game and played it, it kills to know that you have been defeated,

I see the wires pulling while you're breathing

You knew you had a reason

It killed you like diseases

I can hear it in your voice while your speaking

you can't be treated

Mr. know it all, had his reign and his fall

At least that is what his brain is telling all

If he said help me kill the president

I'd say he needs medicine

Sick of screaming let us in

The wires got the best of him

All that he invested in, goes

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

He told me I should take it in

Listen to every word he's speaking

The wires getting older I can hear the way they're creaking

As they're holding him

Well, I could see it in his jaw

That all he ever wanted was a job

He tells me to be, raw

Admits to every little flaw

That never let him sit upon the top

Won't tell me to stop

Thinks that I should be a little cautious

Well, I can tell the wires pulled

If he said help me kill the president

I'd say he needs medicine

Sick of screaming let us in

The wires got the best of him

All that he invested in, goes

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

I'm having trouble in believing

And I just started seeing

Light at the beginning of the tunnel, but he tells me that I'm dreaming

When he talks I hear his ghosts, every word they say to me

I just pray the wires aren't coming

here to strangle me

If he said help me kill the president

I'd say he needs medicine

Sick of screaming let us in,

The wires got the best of him

All that he invested in, goes

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell

Straight to hell
