Pushing the Needle Too Far

[Verse 1]
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, I think I know what's wrong
I think I know what's wrong

[Verse 2]
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
But I said I think I know what's wrong
I think I know what's wrong

[Bridge]
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
Pushing the needle too far
Pushing the needle too far

[Verse 3]
Well, if you wake up in the morning, grey dawn
And there's a prayer on your breath
See, maybe you lost something precious
God'll save you from losing yourself
And you say I think I know what's wrong
Well lemme hear you
I think I know what's wrong

[Outro]
It'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 help me more by not giving in
(Queen who closed the door, the family that lies)
You know, you help me more by not giving in
(People who turn and the cat that has died)
You help me more by not giving in
(A boy that OD's and a girl with a gun)
I said you help me more by not giving in
(The world on its knees and a band on the run)
You help me more by not giving in
I said, don't give in, don't give in, don't give in
(Oh, hey, don't give in, no, not giving in, no)
You help me more by not giving in
(She said, she said, do you wanna give in?)
I said you help me more by not giving in
I said I, I think I know what's wrong
I think I know what's wrong
Pushing the needle too far
