close your eyes try not to speak forget the hours of your struggling try to fix the trouble and pieces of your broken mind the streets that you are traveling on they lead you far away from home and you dont know where youre going to and your dreams they all turned a somber blue this burden on your shoulders is too heavy for you to carry and the well that youre drinking from is a well from a dying generation da , da , da , da , da think back to when you were a child and your heart was free and you were alive and the wind and the rain washed all your fears away she ended the song with a final strum and the applause rang through the house .
