The Wire
Hold your breath beneath the reeds
Still the wire it will find you
See it clawing up the leaves
Its light burning through the trees

You will lose everything

Will you make it through unseen?
Or become their precious thing?
Whisper wait into the wire
But it won’t wait, it won’t wait
It won’t wait

You will lose everything

How long, how long
How long till it’s your turn?

Let me be
Not consumed but burn
How long, how long
How long till you learn

That you will lose everything
