Tangled Wires (Remix)

[Verse 1 ] Tangled wires in the back of my head Crossed up bad, still glowing red Pulled one loose, the whole thing sparked Lit up the room and killed the dark I know better I know the drill How to stand still and call it will But every habit’s got a hidden switch And every clean line’s got a little hitch [Pre-Chorus] I cut the power The circuit hums I shut one door Three more come undone [Chorus] Tangled wires Still running through me Tangled wires Same old current in my teeth I pull the plug It finds another wall Tangled wires I’m not clean of it at all [Verse 2] Yesterday’s fix in tomorrow’s clothes Same bad tune in a lower tone I tell myself it’s not that deep Then lie awake and count the heat My hands remember Before I do What to reach for What to call the truth Every time I think I’ve got it dead It lights back up inside the thread [Pre-Chorus] I kill the signal The static stays I shut one gate It finds another way [Chorus] Tangled wires Still running through me Tangled wires Same old current in my teeth I pull the plug It just finds another wall Tangled wires I’m not clean of it at all [Bridge] I thought the worst part was wanting Turns out it’s what wanting learns How it hides in the ordinary How it waits until the silence turns No halo No cure No bright white room Just one more night Trying not to touch the fuse [Breakdown] Wire in the hand Wire in the jaw Wire in the want Wire in the flaw Pull it loose Hear it sing Tangled up in everything [Final Chorus] Tangled wires Still running through me Tangled wires Same old current in my teeth I pull the plug It just finds another wall Tangled wires I’m not free of it at all Tangled wires Still sparking in the dark Tangled wires Still waking up the dark [Outro ]
