Livewire Lyrics

I’ve been depending on the overgrown
Too many lovers that I’ll never know
Counting my losses as I let them go
Heavy the water as I sink below

Down down deep down
Down deep down
Down down deep down

Oh won’t you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I’m set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

I’ve been pretending all my shots are blown
Cover my heart up never let it show
I’m shaking it off to find a higher low
So heavy the water
Oh so heavy the water

Falling down down deep down
Down deep down
Down down deep down
Can you hear me falling down down deep down
Down deep down
Down down deep down

Oh won’t you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I’m set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

So hold me when I fall away from the lines
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting the light
And hold me when I put my my heart in your hands
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting it

Oh won’t you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I’m set on fire
Your love will take me higher and higher
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

I’ve been depending on the overgrown 
Too many lovers that I’ll never know
Counting my losses as I let them go 
Heavy the water as I sink below

Down down deep down
Down deep down 
Down down deep down

Oh won’t you be my livewire?
Make me feel like I’m set on fire 
Your love will take me higher and higher 
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

I’ve been pretending all my shots are blown 
Cover my heart up never let it show 
I’m shaking it off to find a higher low 
So heavy the water 
Oh so heavy the water

Falling down down deep down 
Down deep down 
Down down deep down 
Can you hear me falling down down deep down 
Down deep down 
Down down deep down

Oh won’t you be my livewire? 
Make me feel like I’m set on fire 
Your love will take me higher and higher 
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

So hold me when I fall away from the lines 
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting the light 
And hold me when I put my my heart in your hands 
When I’m losing it all, when I’m wasting it

Oh won’t you be my livewire? 
Make me feel like I’m set on fire 
Your love will take me higher and higher 
Oh won’t you be my livewire?

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

From the band: "It examines the importance of being someone's 'livewire', their strength and energy. Everyone goes through dark days, and we all occasionally need a helping hand from someone to pull us back into the beauty of life. Human relationships are more important than ever in today's society where more and more people are experiencing depression and isolation. We've gotta be there for each other."
