Down To The Wire Lyrics by The Living End

0

Lord have mercy on me
For all the wrong I've done
And although, we both know
That I should not have run
I'm a desperate man
With a desperate cause
For reasons I shall not give
Just add it on to that list you keep
Of sins that I live with
Are you strong enough tonight?
Are you man enough to try?
Are you ready to give up and say good bye?
Are you more afraid to live than to die?
You have one second to decide
Down To The Wire
Closer to the flame
Down To The Wire
Closer to the flame
And if you get too close to the fire
Then you'll only get burned again
You fall Down To The Wire
Spare me your sympathy I don't need it
I spend more then half of my days feeling defeated
I once bought a second hand bible but I didn't need it
I'm a broken man, with a broken heart
Preparing to pay for my crime
Just like this cigarette in my head
My memory will burn in time
Are you strong enough tonight?
Are you man enough to try?
Are you ready to give up and say good bye?
Are you more afraid to live than to die?
You have one second to decide
Down To The Wire
Close to the flame
Down To The Wire
Closer to the flame
And if you get too close to the fire
Then you'll only get burned again
You fall Down To The Wire
Down To The Wire
Closer to the flame
Down To The Wire
Closer to the flame
And if you get too close to the fire
Then you'll only get burned again
Down To The Wire
Down To the Wire
