Lyrics
Break the silence
Of the pain
She would cry
But nothing gained
Weight on her shoulders
Too much to bear
Eight years old
And no one cares
Bridge
Find that place deep in your mind
Where dreams live and come true in time.
Chorus
Take your pennies down to the wishing well
Toss them in and time will tell
Two things matter and nothing else
Blind Faith and the Wishing Well
Verse
She hides her bruises
Until they heal
Covers them with make up
But still she feels
Twist of fate, she sleeps with a man
Only her mother would understand
Repeat Bridge and Chorus
Verse
She lives alone now
But she's learned to smile
No body found
There can be no trial
She sent him to his grave to live in his own hell
Down at the bottom of the wishing well
Repeat chorus
