A taxi's 'round the bend. You used to laugh out loud, But you can't remember when. You lost your lies. It's like your moving out of time, And the whole word crumbles right beneath you. So, I might've made a few mistakes, But that was back when you would smile, And we would go everywhere, But we ain't been there for awhile.

A taxi's 'round the bend. You used to laugh out loud, But you can't remember when. You lost your lies. It's like your moving out of time, And the whole word crumbles right beneath you. How to understand the red text? You lost you lies - You had no more excuses? It's like your moving out of time - a time travel? the whole world crumbles right beneath you - something happens when you travel through time?
