The wishing well is full again
I've seen it
We've tossed all of our pennies in,
but nothing
Oh, the water's just turned red -
polluted form our impermanence
So, it's better not to know
how to tell the time
Just don't you waste it
Feed the scientist your heart -
beating
Leave the artist starving -
waiting
Then, when you're hungry you'll notice
the craft in our impermanence
So, it's better not to know
how to tell the time
Just don't you waste it
It begs repeating
We have all lived and died once or twice
And in between I always confuse the meaning of life
I never get it right
Fuck it up at every turn all despite
everything I've learned
I always come back to life
So, it's better not to know
how to tell the time
Just don't you waste it

The Other Side

In the dark and silence,
as a child I would see
an image in the ceiling
of god who spoke to me.
He would talk, I'd listen -
what was said I can't recall
anything but that feeling
that I should be afraid
I should be afraid (x3)
In the architecture
designed to civilize
I learned our differences
take on their own lives
when you keep them hidden,
confined and detained,
'cause all my prisoners turned to phantoms,
and I was
Afraid of the other side
When they come for me
there's just nowhere to hide
I have seen the signs,
'cause they come and haunt me from
the other side
So lend me your hands tonight
let's get in touch with
the other side
I can shape my figure
like the other 99 (%),
but the silhouette is eager
and shadows come to life
on the walls and anywhere the light is shed
Ghosts replace the memories
we choose to forget
Afraid of the other side
When they come for me
there's just nowhere to hide
I have seen the signs,
'cause they come and haunt me from
the other side
So lend me your hands tonight
let's get in touch with
the other side
Make your bed, but don't lie in it yet
(It's a lie)
You're never gonna get out of hear
Take your path
Don't bleed your heart out yet
(It's a lie)
You're never gonna get out of here
Don't use your hands to cover your eyes
(It's a lie)
You're never gonna get out of here
Don't hold your breath in fear of death
(It's a lie)
You're never gonna get out of...
Here, never gonna get out of
Here, never gonna get out
Afraid of the other side
When they come for me
there's just nowhere to hide
I have seen the signs,
'cause they come and haunt me from
the other side
So lend me your hands tonight
let's get in tough with
the other side
Lend me your hands tonight
let's get in touch with
the other side
