THE AIRBORNE TOXIC EVENT - Wishing Well lyrics
rate me<BR>
Standing on a bus stop<br>
Feeling your head pop<br>
Out in the night<br>
In the kind of night<br>
Where you want to be out<br>
On the street, on the street<br>
Crawling up the walls<br>
Like a cat in heat<br>
<br>
And the air is thin<br>
And it blows through your skin<br>
And you feel like something<br>
Is about to begin<br>
But you don't know what<br>
And you don't know when<br>
So you tear at your hair<br>
And you scratch at your skin<br>
<br>
You wanna run away, run away<br>
Just get on the fucking train and leave today<br>
And it doesn't matter where you spend the night<br>
You just might end up somewhere in a fight, in a fight<br>
Or calling your room on a concrete shelf<br>
Fighting all alone, with yourself, with yourself<br>
And you just wanna feel like a coin that's been tossed<br>
In a wishing well, a wishing well<br>
A wishing well, a wishing well<br>
Well you're tossed in the air<br>
And you fell and you fell<br>
Through the dark blue waters<br>
Where you cast your spell<br>
Like you were just a wish that could turn out well<br>
<br>
So you stand on the corner<br>
Where the angels sit<br>
And you think to yourself,<br>
"This is it, this is it<br>
This is all that I have<br>
All I can stand<br>
Is this air in my lungs<br>
And this coin in my hand."<br>
That you tossed in the air<br>
And I fell, and I fell<br>
All the way to the bottom<br>
Of the well, of the well<br>
Like those soft little secrets<br>
That you tell, that you tell<br>
To yourself when you think<br>
No one's listening too well<br>
<br>
And the walls spin<br>
And you're paper-thin<br>
From the haze of the smoke<br>
And the mess calling<br>
The threat of your brow<br>
Under unmade sheets<br>
In your ear with the noise<br>
From the darkest streets<br>
We ran far and wide<br>
You screamed, you cried<br>
You thought suicide was an alibi<br>
But you were always a mess<br>
You were always aloof<br>
Yeah, it's awful, I guess<br>
But it's the awful truth<br>
It was truth from the first<br>
To the last words that she read<br>
<br>
And she emerged from the dark<br>
Like a ghost in my head<br>
She said, "I haven't forgot<br>
Any words that you said<br>
I just stare at the clocks<br>
And I cry in my sleep<br>
And I tear up your letters<br>
And I burn them in heaps<br>
And I gather the ashes<br>
In that hole in the ground<br>
Where we fell"<br>
