Lyrics
Oh, what do you know of drownin'? Off the midnight wire? I don't know what came over me, I came across burned desire. Fidgetin' through madness, Spilled the guilt and ditched the blame. Dyin' while I'm livin', ritual dyin' on the stage. Who's that callin' from the midnight choir? who's that fallin' from the midnight wire? Who's crawlin' from the burned-out fire? Oh, save my soul from the midnight wire! Alone and riddled with need, I feel the gaze Of crowded, shooting skies whilst smoothing the place. To soothe my fire safe across the midnight wire, Oh, alone, The storms of night play havoc with my soul. Who's that callin', etc. Oh, it used to be I'd shatter up and splinter through the frame. I'd look into the mirror through a rose bouquet. Waitin', wantin', livin' for the moment of release, Found myself all on fire, Tried to jump the midnight wire. Who's that callin' , etc. Flash of light, then gone, Spark of life, then out. How much numb How long dumb Growing measure of my coming Lose or mend your Sordid sorry ways Leave you rubble of my days Oh, I'm afraid. So tired, chilled to fear, not sure, question cause Make the cure, oh no, ‘cross the midnight wire Rushin' up Brushin' up Crushing up Hushin' up Pickin' up Mixin' up It's enough Fixin' up Ducking the issue of the midnight wire Who's that callin', etc.
