Wishing Well
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You're the crick in my neck
You're the pillow to fix it
You're the bent discs in my back
You're a soothing ice pack
Did it hurt when you fell down my wishing well?
Did you find medicine? Did your heartstrings swell?
Do you see me in your dreams?
Convince yourself that this is happening
Did you forget everything?
You're the flowers on my grave
You're the stone that keeps them in place
You're the dirt that keeps me snug
You're the worms that eat me up
Did it hurt when you fell down my wishing well?
Did you find medicine? Did your heartstrings swell?
Do you see me in the street?
Does PDA make your heart sink?
Or did you forget everything?
And who you saving when the dogs come for your life?
And who you kidding when you say I'm worth your time?
I saw you crying 'cause of me
It made me lose my fucking mind
(Hmm Hmm Hmm)
