Wishing Well

In the corner of a box marked lost and found I find myself again Lining the bottom of a wishing well With other dreams that might have been Flattened by the pressure of what's coming down I'm relying on faith second hand I used to be an average man With bigger than average plans Somehow I got lost along the way And now I'm here Don't you know that you could be the one To set me free I've waited all my life to be someone Somebody could see You can find me still in the corner of a box Marked lost and found at the bottom of A wishing well Burdened by the weight of a wrecking ball I'm defining my own sense of worth I want to bathe my soul in the light As religion finds me immersed Destitution knows me by name While the trick is to sit where you stand I used to be an average man With bigger than average plans Somehow I got lost along the way And now I'm here Don't you know that you could be the one To set me free I've waited all my life to be someone Somebody could see You can find me still in the corner of a box Marked lost and found at the bottom of A wishing well I'm caught shuddering by myself Each wish in the shape of a coin Legal tender for wishes thrown As the water reflects the unknown The tide rips through the surface of time But I can't think of when it began I used to be an average man With bigger than average plans Somehow I got lost along the way And now I'm here Don't you know that you could be the one To set me free I've waited all my life to be someone Somebody could see You can find me still in the corner of a box Marked lost and found at the bottom of A wishing well
