The Devil in the Wishing Well: Music Video (Album Version)
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 nightAnd I'll lead you where you might find yourselfBetter 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 outBut I'm gonna make it out'Cause I'm about her"
See Jane says, "You're as holy as a ghostBut who loves you the most, if you offerI 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 somethingGive me something goodLike everybody else I'm misunderstood"
Jane says, "It's a long way outI'm gonna make it out'Cause I'm aboutJane 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 heartHe said that's nowhere close enough but it's a damn good startI wrote the secret that I buried on the wishing well wallHe said, "
I've seen one it follows that
I've seen them all"We spoke of human destination in a perfect worldDerived the nature of the universe found it unfulfilledAs 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 outI'm gonna make it outIt's a long way outI'm gonna make it outIt's a long, it's a long way outI'm gonna make it out
