The Well

Mama said

She's putting down the wine

The well is growing

Growing dry

Today I

Overslept

And instead of work

I got high

When will I

I remember

Growing up

And cold Decembers

When will I

Find myself

Lose my pride

Lose my health

The medicine

Won't cure my disease

Of running from

I'm losing sleep

And my brother says he feels like he's alone

The bottle won't fuel your cold man

Dad said

He's getting sober

These days

He's getting older

And I won't

Call him back

I'm ashamed for that

I hold my arm up high

I lose my pride

I lose my spine

And my brother says he feels like he's alone

And the bottle won't fuel your cold man

The silence only eats you for awhile

The silence only fuels the fire

The silence only eats you for awhile

And the silence only fuels the fire
