Livewire

(album: Mallory Knox - 2019)

I'm hearing voices again
They're always whispering "Oh, how they get to me"
Yeah, I could do with a friend
Instead of talking to myself constantly
Would you remember my name
If I was someone who worked in a factory?
Yeah, maybe when I am dead
I'll be a friend of a friend 'til then

I'm just a livewire, I'm hanging on the end of a rope
I'm just a livewire with nowhere really else left to go

'Cause I'm a headcase in the most dull way
I sit still when I feel pain
Instead of crying, screaming I'm insane
Like everyone else in their twisted ways

I'm a livewire, I'm hanging on the end of a rope
I'm just a livewire with nowhere really else left to go
Because when my heart stops beating, will I still mean something?
When my heart stops beating, will I still mean something?

'Cause if I breathe you in, I'll have to breathe you out
I could start a fire, then you'll put the fire out
'Cause if I breathe you in, I'll have to breathe you out
Start a fire, then you'll put the fire out
We can play pretend and never sort shit out
Why don't you walk my way?
I'll never let you down

Livewire, I'm hanging on the end of a rope
I'm just a livewire with nowhere really else left to go
Because when my heart stops beating, will I still mean something?
When my heart stops beating, will I still mean something?

I'm a livewire
I'm just a livewire
Well, I'm a livewire
I'm just a livewire!
