"Wire" Lyrics U2

Wire was described by Bono as the "hypodermic needle of the album", it features a fast-paced rhythm section and The Edge's classic ringing guitar sound. In this song, Bono reaches one of the highest notes in his singing career in the line "Cold man, such a cold heart".

Wire Lyrics:

Innocent and in a sense I am
Guilty of the crime that's now in hand
Such a nice day to throw your life away
Such a nice day to let it go

Cold in his eyes, I can't believe it
Cold in his heart and soul
Heart and soul
Cold man, such a cold heart
Such a cold man to watch you tear your self apart
So lay me down, my soul to keep
So lay me down, the longest sleep
Oh, the longest sleep

In I come and out you go you gets
Here we are again now, place your bets
Is this the time, the time to win or lose
Is this the time, the time to choose

Cold in his eyes, I can't believe it
So deep inside a cold fire
Cold, this heart and soul

Any time you are near, kiss it away
Wash it down now
That's right, just keep me up

In some white track you come right back
Cartoon cutout, cut throat let out
I'm on your side, be on the both side
I'm on the right track, you get off my back
I'm no dope, I give you hope
Here's the rope, here's the rope

Now swing on it
