Lyrics Wire Animals - Thin White Rope

Wire Animals

I’m amazed how the news does travel
Static like ghosts in gasoline
Faster than vision on a wire
Faster than voices overseas
And the voice says to me:
«You are alone, you are not free»
Late at night when I’m cooling down
Rattles sound inches from my face
And your voice lashes like a snake
With a phone cord for a tail
And the snake says to me:
«You are alone, you are not free»
I dial networks that ripen slowly
Ripen long after 12 o’clock
And the wind shakes the drying fruit
Sounds like chewing in the dark
And I choose what I see
I am alone, I am not free
