WIRES
This is a sad song about what happens after an accident. The speaker does not quite understand what's happened to them.

The sound of glass;
A car window or the bottle crushed
Underfoot.
There’s no pain but the memory of it
Screaming
Somewhere in the back of my mind.
Smouldering metal, twisting.
There’s crying and I recognise
The tears.
For a moment
They are foreign.
She begged caution, as she would.
Swirling ghosts of snow sliding across
A frozen landscape.
Blinded for a second.
Memories lost in protocols.
They beg. They always beg.
There’s blood on my hands.
Where are my hands?
The silence. The screaming.
I can feel them underneath my skin.
Urges turn to orders.
I was not born into this.
