The Wire By HAIM Taken from the first studio album "Days Are Gone" Track nhạc thứ 3 "The Wire" thuộc thể loại Rock, Soft Rock và R&B mô tả một mối quan hệ thất bại mà người nói gặp khó khăn trong việc giao tiếp hiệu quả. Người nói thừa nhận rằng giao tiếp là một khía cạnh quan trọng của một mối quan hệ, nhưng lại đấu tranh để làm như vậy, dẫn đến sự đổ vỡ trong mối quan hệ. Mặc dù cảm thấy mối quan hệ có vẻ ổn, người nói thừa nhận rằng họ đã phạm sai lầm và "fumbled it when it came down to the wire". Đoạn điệp khúc lặp lại cùng một tình cảm về mối quan hệ có vẻ ổn, nhưng cuối cùng lại tan vỡ. Phần bridge khuyên nên giữ chặt trái tim và không để tâm trí nghỉ ngơi, nhưng người nói không thể xử lý được áp lực của mối quan hệ và cuối cùng không thể thực hiện được. Phần outro nhắc lại rằng họ cảm thấy ổn vào thời điểm đó nhưng không thể chịu được áp lực. Nhìn chung, bài hát khám phá những khó khăn trong các mối quan hệ và tầm quan trọng của giao tiếp trong việc duy trì chúng. Lời bài hát (English) You know I'm bad at communication It's the hardest thing for me to do And it's said it's the most important part That relationships go through And I gave it all away Just so I could say that Well, I know, I know, I know, I know That you're gonna be okay anyway You know there's no rhyme or reason For the way it turned out to be I didn't go and try to change my mind Not intentionally I know it's hard to hear me say it But I can't bear to stay in I just know, I know, I know, I know That you're gonna be okay anyway Always keep your heart locked tight Don't let your mind retire Oh, but I just couldn't take it, I tried hard not to fake it But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire, huh No need to use your imagination Try and make it what you want it to be Because I'm sorry I did what I did But it came naturally And I gave it all away Just so I could say that Well, I know, I know, I know, I know That you're gonna be okay anyway When I tried to keep myself together After all the opportunities I tried to stay true to you and I tried to do What you wanted from me And I gave it all away Just to hear you say that I know, I know, I know, I know That you're gonna be okay anyway Always keep your heart locked tight Don't let your mind retire Oh, but I just couldn't take it, I tried hard not to fake it But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire Always keep your heart locked tight Don't let your mind retire Always keep your heart locked tight Don't let your mind retire Oh, but I just couldn't take it (Always keep your heart locked tight) I tried hard not to fake it But I fumbled (Don't let your mind retire) And when it came down to the wire, ooh yeah But I just couldn't take it (Always keep your heart locked tight) I tried hard not to fake it But I fumbled (Don't let your mind retire) And when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire (But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire) It felt right (Hey) It felt right, oh Oh, but I fumbled and when it came down to the wire Yeah, yeah, yeah (Hey) It felt right, oh But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah (But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire) No, no, no, no, no It felt right (It felt right) Oh, it felt right (It felt right) It felt right No, no, no, no, no But I fumbled and when it came down to the wire Yeah
