Pushing The Needle Too Far - Indigo Girls

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
