lyrics

Please don’t ask for it all
what we once had now is gone
There were too many hands in the jar
Now I don’t think that we’ll get too far
Not at all

We had friends up on top
we had a life in the stars
There was just a small world down below
That place were we came from

But babe we had more than we needed
And we could barely see it
As the lies were getting thicker
we kept getting thinner

Back in the world of make believe
things were not the way they seemed
We were always hanging out on a limb
And things went from bright to dark to dim

But babe we had more that we needed
And we could barely see it
As the lies were getting thicker
we kept getting thinner
Thinner
Thinner

Pleas send out for the doc
I do believe my heart just stopped
Throw me in that big white car
I don’t think that we’ll get too far
Not at all
