Deeper Well Songtext
von Blackbeard's Tea Party

The sun burned hot, it burned my eyes
Burned so hot I thought I′d died
Thought I'd died and gone to hell
Looking for the water in a deeper well
I went to the river but the river was dry
Fell to my knees, looked to the sky
Looked to the sky, the spring rain fell
I saw the water from a deeper well

Well, well, well, well
Looking for the water from a deeper well

I was ready for love, I was ready for the money
Ready for blood, I was ready for the honey
Ready for the winning, ready for the bell
Looking for the water from a deeper well
I found some love and I found some money
Found that blood would drip from the honey
Found I had a thirst that I could not quell
Looking for the water from a deeper well


Well, well, well, well
Looking for the water from a deeper well

Well I did it for kicks, I did it for faith
I did it for lust, I did it for hate
I did it for need, I did it for love
Addiction stayed on tight like a glove
So I ran with the moon and I ran with the night
The three of us were a terrible sight
Nipple to the bottle to the gun to the cell
To the bottom of a hole of a deeper well

I rocked with the cradle and I rolled with the rage
I shook those walls and I rattled that cage
I took my troubles down a dead-end trail
Reaching out a hand for a holier grail
Hey there mother did you carry that load
Did you tell your boy about the bend in the road
′Bout the rebel yell, 'bout the one that fell
Looking for the water from a deeper well


Well, well, well, well
Looking for the water from a deeper well
Looking for the water from a deeper well
Looking for the water from a deeper well
Looking for the water from a deeper well
