I can see the gold sun rising
The candle on the window sill
See the real world just one time
And the ghost rising from the hill
You say you know the way to heaven
And that you love only god
But the whole town knows your secret
Down in the well in the whispering trees
See the wings spread across the evening
See the boys in the burning sand
Hear the sound of mothers weeping
Read the lines in the bleeding hand
You say you got all the answers
And you love only me
But I know where your diamond’s hiding
Down in the well in the heart of the wood
You got a way with icy glances
You got a way with barren roads
You got a way with the twisted sentence
Yeah, you got a way with broken homes
Try to say that your leaves ain't poison
And you know our enemy
But I know where your tongue is leading
Down in the well in a black black dream
There is cancer in the cold cold iron
There is sorrow in every room
Your house is big and full of treasure
Your breath is like the windy tomb
Try to say that you're all aces
Hand full of cards that you can't lose
But I know where the dealer’s buried
Down in the well with some brand new shoes
