Lyrics

There's a place in my heart Nobody's ever been Likes to tear itself down Have I ever loved anything? Plated and then cased Flawed by design If you can get below the surface There is lightning inside Truth and admission I'm afraid of rejection If I strip down to it, the shielding is only protection [Chorus] 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 beforе It's that reoccurring dream Wherе I will never amount to more Than the voices in my head You can't 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 [Chorus] 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 [Chorus] Down to the wire Down to the wire Down to the wire Take me down [Chorus] Down to the wire Down to the wire Down to the wire Take me down
