Indigo Girls - Pushing The Needle Too Far lyrics

Well i woke up this morning Grey dawn With a prayer on my breath See i lost something precious And god'll save me From losing myself I said i think i know what's wrong I think i know what's wrong Now i met the queen and i understand why Why she closed the door I'm not making excuses But you know i've been there a few times You know i was I was knocking on the door I said i think i know what's wrong I think i know what's wrong Wrong wrong There's a man He lived in a house Had a family of five Well he blew up the windows and the doors He said "i just couldn't I just couldn't survive" We've all been removed In one way or another We don't know our families We don't need our brothers We're pushing the needle too far Pushing the needle too far Well if you wake up in the morning Grey dawn There's a prayer on your breath See maybe you lost something precious God'll save you From losing yourself I said i think i know what's wrong Let me hear you I think i know what's wrong There's queen who closed the door The family that lies People who turn The cat that has died A boy that od's A girl with a gun The world on its knees And a band on the run You know you'd help me more (the queen who closed the door) By not giving in (the family that lies) You know you'd help me more (people who turn) By not giving in (and the cat that has died) You know you'd help me more (a boy that od's) By not giving in (and a girl with a gun) I said you'd help me more (the world on it's knees) Now don't you give in (and a band on the run) Ah now you'd help me more By not giving I said don't you dare (not giving in no) Don't you dare (not giving in no) Don't you dare You'd help me more By not giving in I said you'd help me more By not giving in I said i I think i know what's wrong I think i know what's wrong We're pushing the needle too far
