I’m walkin’ a wire, feels like a thousand ways I could fall
To want is to buy, but to live is to die and you can’t take it all
When everything is said and done I won’t have one thing left
What happened to everything I’ve ever known?
[Chorus]
All they gave me was this ticket to heaven
But that ticket to heaven said to lie in the bed that you make
Now I’m restless and I’m running from everything
I’m running from everything, I’m afraid it’s a little too late
Soft voices lie and innocence dies, now ain’t that a shame?
Then all of your dreams and all your money, they don’t mean a thing
When everything is said and done you won’t have one thing left
What happened to everything I’ve ever known?
[Chorus]
It’s a little too late
[Chorus: x2]
It’s a little too late
