when particles collide - down to the wire lyrics
i know my body’s just a casing for my bones
once so supple, now so slack, so tired and worn
i told a boy i’ve been singing since before he learned to talk
and i am this old because it takes time to make glorious mistakes
i’d like to rip every single silver hair up by the root
and send them off in a letter to myself in 1992
darlin’, let your voice leave the tight little cage of your throat
and wear short skirts before those veins take hold
ooh+ooh+ooh, ah+ah+ah
it’s coming down, down to the wire
ooh+ooh+ooh, ah+ah+ah
it’s coming down, down to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
and i would like to do more than just survive
my reflection gave me pause when i saw an unfamiliar face
gone are the rosy cheeks of youth, just these lines to trace
and there’s no potion that can vanquish the savagery of time
so, my love, i hope you can still find beauty in these eyes
ooh+ooh+ooh, ah+ah+ah
it’s coming down, down to the wire
ooh+ooh+ooh, ah+ah+ah
it’s coming down, down to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
it’s coming down, oh, to the wire
and i would like to do more than just survive
