Lyrics
[verse]
Threw a coin into the well when I was young
Wished for something I could never name or sum
Now I'm older and the wishes changed their shape
Still I'm standing at the edge trying to escape
[verse]
Every high I chase just leaves me feeling low
Every crowd I'm in still feels alone, you know
I built a name but lost myself along the way
Wishing I could find the boy I was that day
[chorus]
I keep throwing coins into a wishing well
Hoping it can save me from the things I can't tell
Every wish I make is one more thing I hide
Wishing well, wishing well, take me for a ride
Maybe one day the water clears and I can see
The version of myself I'm trying to be
[verse]
I know the things I lean on ain't the cure
I know the numbness never made me sure
But some nights the silence gets too loud
And I forget how to stand up proud
[chorus]
I keep throwing coins into a wishing well
Hoping it can save me from the things I can't tell
Every wish I make is one more thing I hide
Wishing well, wishing well, take me for a ride
Maybe one day the water clears and I can see
The version of myself I'm trying to be
[bridge]
Somebody tell me it gets better from here
Somebody hold me through this final fear
I'm tired of wishing on a thing that ain't real
I wanna learn a different way to heal
[chorus]
I keep throwing coins into a wishing well
Hoping it can save me from the things I can't tell
Every wish I make is one more thing I hide
Wishing well, wishing well, take me for a ride
Maybe one day the water clears and I can see
The version of myself I'm trying to be
