Wishing Wells (Talk)
[Verse 1]
I could say I'm okay
But I think that I'd be lying
I don't know where my mind goes late at night
But, shit, I'm trying
Recklessly, I start to dream
About what day we'd do
If I decide to leave this life
And search of something new
[Pre-Chorus]
Uh-uh-uh, uh-uh-uh
This has gone far enough
I feel like giving up
I don't know what I want
But they care when I'm gone
Maybe my time is up
Holding half-empty cups
This is the present stuff
But lately my life's been fucked
People been talking tough
Saying I'm not man enough
But I feel this every day
And it don't just fade away
Like, this blade is cutting off
My tongue when I open up
I hope that it'll change
'Cause I've heard there's brighter days
[Chorus]
I stay curled up in my shell
Living life through wishing wells
Ignorantly, you can't tell
But I'll stay low until I propel
[Verse 2]
This world is mad enough
But it's worse if you have no luck
I'm giving people everything
Even thought 'bout wedding rings
And it's true that shit's a drug
But what is live without no love
I couldn't think of anything
A violin without no strings
And this is what I want to do
Carry life and see it through
I mean what have I got to loose?
A bunch of thoughts that make me blue
If you listen and I'll talk
Give me the bridge and I will walk
Across this thing and use my chalk
To mark the [?] that is taught
[Chorus]
I stay curled up in my shell
Living life through wishing wells
Ignorantly, you can't tell
But I'll stay low until I propel
I stay curled up in my shell
Living life through wishing wells
Ignorantly, you can't tell
But I'll stay low until I propel
[Bridge]
As you all know, [?] ever tend to just
And I think we bottle it up too much and we
Then, things kinda [?] when
But the things that [?]
Talk, talk, talk
[Outro]
I stay curled up in my shell
Living life through wishing wells
Ignorantly, you can't tell
But I'll stay low until I propel
