Wishing Well
Plow Monday Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fall into your shadow while you wait
Seasons fall for choices, you don't know where you lie
Heightened by your great emancipate
But you don't know that every cloud above you rains for you
Every silver lining glitters gold
Inside you head believe instead you're running from yourself
Something strange has happened here, your blatant alibis
Encouraged by a sovereign simple fate
Won't disturb your slumber as you dream of days gone by
Hauled through your head to Heaven's gate
But you don't know that every day apart from you I cry
Every waking moment I debate Surrendering I'm left defending lazy sets of lies
To make a simple future we can't wait
(But I can always wait for you)
Crawled out from nothing and called out, becoming
A frequently fashionable sign
Make it till morning the day is still coming
You don't ask the questions, you don't ask the questions to lie
Something strange has happened here, I don't remember why
Forgotten realms of solace torn apart
Maybe life surrounded it and maybe I don't try
To find tomorrow's path into your heart
But you don't wait, you jump the gate, tomorrow's left untold
You need your time to make things turn out right
As Saturn spins your life begins to shine, your days unfold
Making simple choices in this light
But you don't know that when I hear your name I die inside
When I see your eyes I melt away
It's been so long but I'll be strong and you won't see me cry
Wishes fall like stars that fade away
The lyrics to Plow Monday's song "Wishing Well" are complex and introspective, showing the inner turmoil and confusion of the singer. The song seems to be about a lost love, but the lyrics are cryptic and open to interpretation. The singer sings about a strange feeling that something has gone wrong, and that the wishing well has run dry. To him, it seems like his world has fallen apart, and he can't see a way to find his path again. He feels like he's falling into his shadow, unable to escape his own thoughts and feelings.
The lyrics also suggest that the singer is running from himself, trying to escape the pain of his past. He sees himself as someone who can't hold onto anything, and who can't let go of his mistakes. He struggles to make the right choices, and can't seem to find his way out of the darkness.
Despite the darker themes of the lyrics, there is also a sense of hope and redemption. The singer acknowledges that every cloud above him rains for him, and every silver lining glitters gold. He realizes that he needs to believe in himself, and that he can't keep running from his problems. The song ends with a sense of acceptance and resignation, as the singer sings that he'll be strong and won't let his lost love see him cry.
