There's a dream that has no ending
|
There's a love that cannot be
|
There's a ghost without the chains of love
|
Who will never ever be free
|
And gather round the rich man
|
Their own souls to sell
|
Down in the darkness
|
Of the wishing well
|
|
There's a way to find peace
|
That nobody cares to own
|
The sacrifice that's needed
|
May be way to close to home
|
There's a charter of freedom
|
Where the last soldier fell
|
All in the darkness
|
Of the wishing well
|
|
There's a whisper of light
|
Way above their desires
|
While they sit in the dark
|
And dream of bright skies
|
What they wanted so bad
|
Don't exist in it's place
|
The idea of changing
|
Is too hard to face
|
Down in the darkness
|
Of the wishing well
|
|
So they sit at the bottom
|
And they gaze with sad eyes
|
That grow larger than envy
|
Til they split at the sides
|
And they sleep in the mess
|
Of the last soul that fell
|
Down in the darkness
|
Oh, down in the darkness
|
Of the wishing well
|
