[Verse 1] I know how to fix a radio When the station falls apart I know the smell of solder smoke On my shirt and on my heart Got a drawer full of old phone parts And a box of busted dreams But baby, you and me were wired For a lot more than it seems
You’re the screen with a hairline crack Still shining through the rain I’m the stubborn little tester light That keeps on calling your name We got unplugged by hard times But I still see the spark Like a battery in a cold truck bed Still beating in the dark
[Pre-Chorus] And I can hear the hum of us Even now, far away Like a fan in an empty room Still trying to stay
[Chorus] You’re my live wire, I’m your spark We still light up in the dark Broken pieces, stormy skies Still got voltage in our eyes You’re my live wire, I’m your spark (You’re my live wire) We still light up in the dark (Still light up) Pull me close, don’t let me go We’re two good souls in overload
[Verse 2] I love to tear apart a set-top box Find the twist that made it fail A busted jack, a loose little wire A screw that slipped its trail But you, you’re more than plastic and glass More than buttons I can press You’re the one thing I can’t replace In this whole old mess
I’ve cleaned grease off a circuit board And brought dead things back to life I’ve watched a weak connection Turn strong under pressure and time So if we’re wrecked, we’re worth the work Worth every midnight prayer I’d rather patch this love with my bare hands Than pretend it’s not there
[Pre-Chorus] And I can feel that current Even across the miles Like a warning light that’s patient Waiting for a while
[Chorus] You’re my live wire, I’m your spark We still light up in the dark Broken pieces, stormy skies Still got voltage in our eyes You’re my live wire, I’m your spark (You’re my live wire) We still light up in the dark (Still light up) Pull me close, don’t let me go We’re two good souls in overload
[Bridge] I’ve seen a dead screen come back bright With one hard reset and faith I’ve seen a motor catch and roar After shaking loose the weight So if your hand still reaches mine And my name still lives in you Then I know this storm don’t own the road It just means we’re pushing through
[Chorus] You’re my live wire, I’m your spark We still light up in the dark Broken pieces, stormy skies Still got voltage in our eyes You’re my live wire, I’m your spark (You’re my live wire) We still light up in the dark (Still light up) Pull me close, don’t let me go We’re two good souls in overload
[Outro] Yeah, two good souls in overload (Overload) Still got voltage in our bones (Our bones) If you call, I’ll answer fast Like a light that wants you home
Стиль музыки
Country with driving four-on-the-floor stomp, gritty acoustic guitar, steel guitar swells, handclaps, and a galloping bass line; verse 1 runs long and vivid, pre-chorus tightens with vocal stacks, chorus lands in a chantable hook with gang doubles, verse 2 opens wider with repair-shop detail, bridge strips to lonely harmonica and close-mic voice before a final full-band chorus. Bright, punchy mix with dusty edges, delay throws on key hook words, and small foley sparks between lines., country, exciting
