Wire Lyrics - The Nixons

We have heard the songs of angels 

We have tasted flames from hell 

We have seen the fallen hero 

We have heard the ringing bell 

And it all seems cleaner in the rain 

Now it all begins to look the same 

We have come into this lifetime 

With only a few things on our side 

Although we are only mortal men 

The choice to change is yours and mine 

And it all seems cleaner in the rain 

And it all begins to look the same 

Now the laughter turns to tears 

Now the seconds seem like years 

Oh, but I'm still holding on 

Driving through the tears 

Only one world we've been given 

Earth, wind, sea, air 

We're burning holes into the morning sky 

And we have learned not to care 

And it all seems cleaner in the rain 

And it all begins to look the same 

Now the laughter turns to tears 

Now the minutes seem like years 

But I'm still holding on 

Driving through the tears 

And it all seems cleaner in the rain 

And it all begins to look the same 

Now the laughter turns to tears 

Now the days seem like years 

I hear the gods begin to cheer 

As we watch our sky disappear 

This is my exodus 

This is my wire 

Send it to those who care 

I'm still holding on
