Lyrics You took a walk to the wishing well It's a place that you knew so well You know, where you can go... You threw some change down the hole Somebody cashed in on your dreams of hope You laugh - cause they're all you have When it comes down... you'll see When you're over your head When it all crashes down on you You want to be anywhere instead You need to find what gets you through Stare at the sun through the pouring rain It's the only thing to ease your pain Inside, that you can not hide You listen for an answer to your call You hear silence and that is all You get, and you're soaking wet But now... there's no regrets... When you're over your head When it all crashes down on you You want to be anywhere instead You need to find what gets you through You struggle for air as you try to breathe As the waves crash down you cannot see You wouldn't stop til you had more Til you found what you were looking for You struggle for air as you're sinking down I can't hear you when you're underground When I'm here, I'm here for you You need to find what gets you through You travel down to the place inside Its the farthest corner of your mind From here, its all unclear If you could figure out whats going on You'd know where the truth has gone To stay - it's far away When you figure it out, you'll say... When you're over your head When it all crashes down on you You want to be anywhere instead You need to find what gets you through
