D.r.i. - Down To The Wire lyrics

When it comes down to the wire No one will help, every man for himself When it comes down t the wire You have to do what you can for yourself There's a contract out on me Now there's no safe place to be I'm on the run all day and night Laying low, staying out of sight I'm not sure if I can take it I don't know if I can make it All the money in the world Can't buy a true friend When it comes down, down to the wire When it comes down, down to the wire I'm so tired, but I don't dare go to sleep How did I get in so deep? I learned something that I'd rather not know Maybe I could make it down to mexico I know way more than I'd like to admit And they know I know, that's why the hit It's the not knowing when that I really dread They'll be after me until I'm dead When it comes down to the wire No one will help, every man for himself When it comes down t the wire You have to do what you can for yourself Can't go to work, I can't go home Gotta face it, I'm alone Hiding behind every bush and tree May be someone waiting for me It could be someone that I know Can't think of a worse way to go Could even be a good friend they hire When it comes down to the wire When it comes down, down to the wire When it comes down, down to the wire [Lyrics: brecht]
