Cover art for Wires lyrics by Athlete

The comeback song for Athlete off their new album Tourist. It has quite a melancholic feel to it, however the song is full of hope, and i think is actually about the lead singers baby which was born and had to recieve quick medical attention, until later returned to their parents fine.

i think this could be the year of the athlete!

That makes a lot of sense...

Am i the only person who thought it was about someones attempt at suicide because of "there's dry blood on your wrist" And yeah i always thought maybe it was about that lol

This song can not only be about a premature baby being born and placed in a box with wires inside...it can also mean any person in the hospital. I love this song because I've been in and out of hospitals for the past 4 years for various life threatening illnesses. The box he refers to can also be a ventilator or a morphine drip machine. The wires of course can be IV's
