Wishing Well

My vision is clouded by darkness as I see all these unfamiliar faces
I find myself lost in my dreams
Trapped on another dimension of my own creation
As my mind becomes wrapped in a web of laces
The limbs that hold my body together slowly rip apart

I keep following the same shadows day and night
Hoping to find a reason to understand
I've been trying to find the place filled with promises,
Hoping to resurrect my soul from this hell

As hard as I try, I cannot quench my thirst for this knowledge
For my soul has dried from the wishing well

Everywhere I go there are dead bodies that I cannot dispel
Looking at them makes me weep
Weeping for how far they've fallen

The wishing well is getting drier
I find myself getting weaker
Like a ripe apple turned rotten
All the life drained right out of me

The world is coming undone all around me
I try to escape but there's nothing but dead ends
I try to see through but hope only fades away

Do I surrender, or let the fire burn all around me?
Do I give into the pain, and let it melt my pain
Should I succumb to the punishment of loving you

Please expel the darkness that hides behind my heart
Hurry and cut away the vines and break my soul from this prison
Bleed it out
Bleed out the sewage that's contaminated my well
