Oh, what

do you know of drowning,

of midnight wire?

I dunno what came over me

I come across a burnin' desire

Fidgeting through madness

spill the guilt

and ditch the blame

Dyin'

while I'm livin'

Rich or dyin'

on the stage



Who's that callin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's that fallin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's crawlin' from the

burnt-out fire?

Save my soul

from the midnight wire



Oh, low

and riddled with need I feel the gain

of crowded shootin' sky

while smoothin' the plain

To soothe my fire safe

across the midnight wire

Oh,the low

the storms of night

may help

my soul



Who's that callin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's that fallin' from the

midnight wire?

(midno, midno)

Who's crawlin' from the

burnt-out fire?

Save my soul

from the midnight wire



Oh, it used to be

I'd shatter up

and splinter

through the frame

I'd look

into the middle of

a rose bouquet

Waitin',wantin',

livin' for the moment of release

Found myself

caught on fire

tried to jump the midnight wire



Who's that callin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's that fallin' from the

midnight wire?

(midno, no, no)

Who's crawlin' from the

burnt-out fire?

Save my soul

from the midnight wire

(midno, no, no)

(Oh, no, no, no)



Wash of lies, let go

Spark of life, burnt out

How much long

I'll endure

Grow and measure

of my calling

New song and tune

{?} are a waste

Leave you, rumble of my days

Oh,I'm afraid

So tired

chained to fear

Not sure

which one could

make the cure

Oh, no

cross the midnight wire

Rushin' up, rushin' up

Brushin' up, hushin' up

Pickin' up, mixin' up

Fixin' up, fixin' up

Duckin' the issue

of the midnight wire



Who's that callin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's that fallin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's crawlin' from the

burnt-out fire?

Save my soul

from the midnight wire

Who's that callin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's that fallin' from the

midnight wire?

Who's crawlin' from the

burnt-out fire?

Save my soul

from the midnight wire
