Lyrics
(Deep Within) The Well
Verse 1
If you drop a secret into a bucket
It?ll fall down deep into the well
A muffled splash is night?s confession
Don?t look down or you might fall in
CHORUS:
Deep within the well
You keep what you won?t tell
A peace that you won?t sell
Lies deep within the well
Verse 2
It?s coldest down deep where the secrets are kept
Where the rope pulls tight, faces have wept
Pulling a riddle out of a hat
This brand of truth is a lot like that
CHORUS:
Deep within the well
You keep what you won?t tell
A peace that you won?t sell
Lies deep within the well
Bridge
Pull it up, pull up the bucket
Give it up; you know you can?t keep it
Shadows from the deepest lies
Will blacken out the eastern sky
CHORUS:
?Cause deep within the well
You keep what you won?t tell
A peace that you won?t sell
Lies deep within the well
