[Chorus]
Down on a limb, out on a limb
I didn't want to go this far, my branch is gettin' thin
Don't you know that I'm out on a limb, scared on a limb
I really hope it's not too late, somehow there's got to be a way back in
I'm near the end, without a friend, I'm on the limb

[Verse 1]
Thought was the coolest thing
The brightest flash in town (Ah, you know you were)
I could turn your head around
It used to be so easy
All the games were so much fun
I hate to bring you down
But things keep changing all the time
It used to be so easy
Yes it was, but it's gettin' harder to remember all the time

[Chorus]
Out on a limb, out on a limb
This isn't what I had in mind, the ice is gettin' thin
Out on a limb, and I'm scared on the limb
I really hope it's not too late, somehow there's got to be a way back in
I'm near the end, without a friend, I'm on the limb

[Verse 2]
Try to keep above it all
Outside lookin' in
Careful or you'll find yourself
Sinkin' past the bottom
My whole life is flashin' past
Right before my eyes
Someone loosen up the noose
I'm sinkin' past the bottom
[Chorus]
Out on a limb, out on a limb
Just might be my time has come, it looks like they might win
Don't you know that I'm out on a limb, I'm scared on the limb
I really hope it's not too late, somehow there's got to be a way back in
I'm near the end, without a friend, I'm on the limb

[Outro]
I'm on the limb
Someone get me down
Take me down
