I went down where the road meets the sea
And I took everything that I own
I was sitting on catastrophe's knee
I was expecting Armageddon to come
The highway was choked with its usual clots of pickups and loud radios
The airwaves were full of the obvious
I was muttering, "what have we done"
And you cried out to stop me
You cried out to stop me
I said, "oh no, it's too late
You and me, we know too much"
You and me, we know too much

Well, I dreamed that we found bloody guns
As we were looking for holes in the air
Someone shouted that we were the ones
So, I stepped on the gas in despair
I woke up from the dream in a sweat
With the knowledge of evil and good
And I looked at my own silhouette
It looked back with a bad attitude
You reached out to touch me
You reached out to touch me
I said, "oh no, it's too true
You and me, we know too much"
You and me, we know too much
You and me, we know too much
You and me, we know too much

In our hearts, we were wandering gypsies
In our minds, we were heirs to the jewels
To the poor, we were swaddled in riches
To the rich, we ain't nothing but poor
We don't know what became of our fortune
It could rescue or end other lives
We were gathering speed through this tunnel
To go down where the truth meets the lie
You reached out to soothe me
You reached out to soothe me
And I said, "it's too cruel
You and me, we know too much"
You and me, we know too much
You and me, we know too much
You and me, we know too much
