[Deligoodies30]

[AdamCoffin13]

I had this track on a three song EP with Blood Money and No Time to Cry...always loved this song..

[ZLUGGO]

Excellent tune.

[artemusprine]

Why in the unholy hell was this never released?

[bPcrazydave]

@artemusprine When I had it, it was the B-side of the Body Electric EP.

[kipperwacker]

possibly their best song?

[silencefi]

Now the ground comes up too fast Too fast to meet you In clouds of dust erupting Thick around your feet, be careful In the rubble in waiting Wall to wall where you tread Now the quick and the dead and the same old Fates come calling cards away How do you think it came to pass you By the hard way by desire How do you think it came to pass you by? On the wire

[silencefi]

I don't sleep so I don't dream

So I don't wake up frightened

Everything is what it seems if

You look deep enough tonight and

See.....

On the wire

On the wire

On the wire

I will not fall

[TheSodiumhaze]

Aren't they just the best lyrics ever! Pure class!

[artemusprine]

Not just my favourite band, but by far my favourite band...

I've listened to this song for years and never knew there was a studio version of it!

[ultracoe]

buen tema,sonido inconfundible,q grande por dios

[stilliremainhere]

What a tune! And it's not even on an album!

[sindiisindii]

it's on "some boys wander by mistake"

[ChrisMK72]

[shadowgeek101]

BEAUTIFUL SONG! I wish I could find an album or even a bootleg for this, man... I'd love to have this playing damn near 24/7 in my house and on my MP3...

[Kartofflesalad]

Its on the remastered version of First and Last and Always.

[Thescarydutchman]

it's on some boys wander by mistake

[verrybadman]

i know of a place to get every song they made and every bootleg. free, no shipping

[PigunTheCarnifex]

Please do tell? Please don't let it be the Heartland forum? (No disrespect intended to them-persons.)

[ezanevemhelye]

Cool tune.

[gregexpr]

"I don't sleep so I don't dream so I don't wake up frightened", how much of my teenage life got influenced by that line ... great song, thx 4 posting it.

[pur69]

Ah! One of the great, forgotten Sisters tracks! It's so great to hear this after so many years! I have it on 12" vinyl somewhere (I hope) in my parents' house many, many miles away! This, along with Poison Door, Blood Money, and Bury Me Deep - pure class!!
