[Verse 1]
I'm getting older, you're getting older
Never in touch, we gave up on that recently
Trash the hotel room, couldn't be closer
Making a mess ain't as fun as it used to be

[Pre-Chorus]
Life can't always be one giant firework display
(I give up, I look back on those days)

[Chorus]
Ooh, are you still a live wire?
Ooh, are you still starting fires?
We had our own kind of energy
Funny, when you're right there next to me
Trouble will find us, but now it's behind us

[Verse 2]
Falling from grace, but I wouldn't change it
Maybe, we took things just one little step too far
Coming home late and waking your neighbours
At least, there'll be no more destruction now we're apart

[Pre-Chorus]
Life can't always be one perfect walk in the park
(We grow up and we grow apart)
[Chorus]
Ooh, are you still a live wire?
Ooh, are you still starting fires?
We had our own kind of energy
Funny when you're right there next to me
Trouble will find us, but now it's behind us

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, hope you're still alive
Hope you're still a live wire
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, hope you're still alive
Hope you're still a live wire
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Outro]
Ooh, are you still a live wire?
Ooh, are you still starting fires?
We had our own kind of energy
Funny when you're right there next to me
Trouble will find us, but now it's behind us
