Wishing Well

Red Rover, come over, pick clovers
Let's spend a little time away
We're learning, we're turning, we're burning our hands
Playing in the fire today
But please don't listen
To the lies inside this place
When the monster rears its head out
Just turn and see your face
When the sky is torn, the feelings are reborn
Like the passing rain, this moment will fade away
And so I try to find my water all by myself
It's so dry
I won't stop to cry
Indecision is killing, you're wishing, you're dreaming
You're measly life away
Time is out, time is gone, time is in
Time has come and flown away
But please don't listen
To the lies inside this place
When the monster sticks its head out
Just turn and slap its face
When the sky is torn, the feelings are reborn
Like the passing rain, this moment will fade away
And so I try to find my water all by myself
It's so dry
I'm drinking from this wishing well
I'm fleeing from this frozen cell
And I think about the people I've hurt in my life
I think about the people I've hurt in my life
Forgive me for the people I've hurt in my life
Forgive me for the people I hurt
When the sky is torn, the feelings are reborn
Like the passing rain, this moment will fade away
And cannot find my water all by myself
So I wander
And I wander and wander and wander
All by myself
