Wires, nothing but wires
The circuit is open,
The synapse is fired
Frequency strained to the skies,
Circling higher
I am nothing but wires
Mind, nothing but mind
This body was born but I’m not of your kind
I am the ghost of a star
Take out your eyes, come see what you are
Hold them on high,
Bound by your wires, nothing but wires,
Coiling out for infinite miles of
Intricate wires,
Nothing but wires,
Shimmering wires,
I am nothing but wires
Love, deep deadly love
Heart of the mountain, flesh of the dove
Teeth of your ancestors,
Blood of your blood
I am the fire where the temple once stood
I am the fire where the temple once stood
I am the fire,
I am he, we are
Wires, nothing but wires,
Coiling out for infinite miles of
Intricate wires,
Nothing but wires,
Shimmering wires
Oh, nothing but dreams.
I give you your dreams
Scanning your mind to divine what I mean
Behold,
I am man as he’s never been seen
You are the spectator pressed to the screen
We are the screen, nothing between us but
Wires, nothing but wires,
Coiling out for infinite miles of
Intricate wires,
Nothing but wires
Shimmering wires,
I am nothing but wires
Nothing but wires
Coiling cathedrals, elegant spires,
Nothing but wires

Banger after banger. These guys have reinvented what should be possible with the string instrument. This album doesn't miss, and I will not rest until everyone on the planet has listened to it. India Bowen
