The Devil In The Wishing Well — текст песни (Five For Fighting)

I met Jane at the center of the earth

It was dark there was dirt all around

But I gather you can figure that



Jane says I`m your body in the night

And I`ll lead you where you might find yourself

Better if you follow me



So go right you`ll be left at a big hotel

You`ll meet the devil at the bottom of a wishing well

You know you better give him something

Give him something good

Like everybody else he`s misunderstood



Jane says it`s a long way out...

I`m gonna make it out

Cause I`m about her



Jane says, you`re as Holy as a ghost,

But who loves you the most, if you offer

I might let you carry me



Jane there`s nobody here but yourself

In the end it`s the wealth of your spirit

Now hurry up get on with it



I went left I got right at some big hotel

There was a devil at the bottom of the wishing well

He said you better give me something

Give me something good

Like everybody else I`m misunderstood



Jane says it`s a long way out

I`m gonna make it out

Cause I`m about

Jane says it`s a long way out

I`m gonna make it out



I took a guess and cut a portion out of my heart

He said that`s nowhere close enough but it`s a damn good start

I wrote the secret that I buried on the wishing well wall

He said I`ve seen one... it follows that I`ve seen them all

We spoke of human destination in a perfect world

Derived the nature of the universe (found it unfulfilled)

As I took him in my arms he screamed I`m not insane

I`m just looking for someone to understand my pain...



It`s a long way out...

I`m gonna make it out
