Pushing The Needle Too Far Lyrics - 1200 Curfews - Indigo Girls

well i woke up this morning 

grey dawn 

with a prayer on my breath 

you 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

see 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" 

yeah well 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've lost something precious 

god'll save you 

from losing yourself 

you say i think i know what's wrong 

let me hear you 

i think i know what's wrong 

there's the queen who closed the door 

the family that lies 

the 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 

(she said) 

you'd help me more 

(she said she wouldn't give in) 

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
