There is a well
Down by the hollow
Its waters deep
As they can be
Thousands come
And millions follow
All to see
What they could see

Now some see light
And some see violence
Some see might
And some see flow
But all see truth
Deep down in silence
As they pass the booth
Where the tickets go

I am the well
I am the well

I call to all
Who cannot hear me
I call to those
Who hear as well
And those I touch
When they come near me
And those who hurt
But cannot tell

I am the well
I am the well

I am the waters 
Never ending
I am reflections 
From the past
I am the stream 
Never bending
Until you reach
The truth at last
The truth at last
The truth at last

I am the well
I am the well
I am the well
