Wishing Well

And the devil's openin' up my skull
Reachin' on down to clutch my soul
I'm so heavy lyin' on the floor
Don't give a damn baby give it some more now
Get the fuck out and turn off the lights
No wait come back I don't wanna fight
There's a rusty cage with a beast inside
He's grinnin' through the bars
But I don't mind

These streets will burn you alive as if you're goin' through hell
Sometimes all that you've got goes down the wishin' well
There's no silver lining hearts of gold they don't sell
When all that you've got goes down the wishin' well
Goes down the wishin' well

And the road up to paradise runs through hell
Don't hear don't speak never tell
'cause the golden boys got you under his spell
And you crawl into the back seat ringin' a bell
And I told you I told you I tell you again
Someone's beginning is somebody's end
And the weight of the world and its original sin
Built this cage that holds you in

These streets will burn you alive as if you're goin' through hell
Sometimes all that you've got goes down the wishin' well
There's no silver lining hearts of gold they don't sell
When all that you've got goes down the wishin' well

The finding the losing
The joy left for the taking
The hunger the loathing
A heart that won't stop breaking
The hunter the prey
The one missed shot
Are sometimes all that you've got
And sometimes all that you've got
Goes down the wishin' wishin' well

These streets will burn you alive as if you're goin' through hell
Sometimes all that you've got goes down the wishin' well
There's no silver lining hearts of gold they don't sell
When all that you've got goes down the wishin' well

The finding the losing
The devil's opening up my skull
The hunger the loathing
Reaching on down to clutch my soul
The hunted is hunting till the road up to paradise runs through hell
And the finding is losing
Don't hear don't speak never tell
Don't hear don't speak never tell
