He used to go Where the fence is broke Down the well he knows Treads with stones he holds Clouds roll Sun begins to swallow Up all of the water now Well's gone hollow Stuck at the bottom Feel his arms Start to give He went down with it Stones smashed open Leaves behind Glowing fragments Doesn't have the heart just to turn back home Silences a start just to see what happens Greedy A ladder is thrown By the townsfolk Tried to fish him out Get a piece of his new found wealth That surrounds the poorest man who cries to himself Doesn't have the heart just to turn back home Silences a start just to see what happens Greedy Tears fill up the well Brings him to rise They devour him Skinned for disguise It still looms.
