The Devil In The Wishing Well

I met Jane at the center of the earth

It was dark there was dirt all around

But I gather you can figure that

And Jane says, "I'm your body in the night

And I'll lead you where you might find yourself

Better if you follow me"

So go right you'll be left at a big hotel

You'll meet the Devil at the bottom of a wishing well

You know you better give him something

Give him something good

Like everybody else he's misunderstood

Jane says, "It's a long way out

But I'm gonna make it out

'Cause I'm about her"

See Jane says, "You're as holy as a ghost

But who loves you the most, if you offer

I might let you carry me"

And Jane there's nobody here but yourself

In the end it's the wealth of your spirit

Now hurry up get on with it

I went left, I got right at some big hotel

There was a Devil at the bottom of the wishing well

He said, "You better give me something

Give me something good

Like everybody else I'm misunderstood"

Jane says, "It's a long way out

I'm gonna make it out

'Cause I'm about

Jane says, "It's a long way out

I'm gonna make it out

I'm gonna make it out

I'm gonna make it out"

I took a guess and cut a portion out of my heart

He said that's nowhere close enough but it's a damn good start

I wrote the secret that I buried on the wishing well wall

He said, "I've seen one it follows that I've seen them all"

We spoke of human destination in a perfect world

Derived the nature of the universe found it unfulfilled

As I took him in my arms he screamed, "I'm not insane

I'm just looking for someone to understand my pain"

It's a long way out

I'm gonna make it out

It's a long way out

I'm gonna make it out

It's a long, it's a long way out

I'm gonna make it out
