Lyrics

Running Dry

Let's put it down to experience.
Put it down to because we should.
Put it down to the circumstance.
Let's put it down for good.

Because sooner or later
we're gonna have to face the fact
There's been a change in the weather
and it ain't coming back.

Nothing good could ever make this,
Something right, it just never was.
We're spinning our wheels and wasting time.
No matter what we try
Cause,

The well has run out of water
The river, it's run dry,
Hey bartender pour me out another
Cause I think I'm staying here tonight.
Nothing's black or white.
Wrong or right.
I've said my last goodbye.

So put away all your arguments.
Put away your defense.
You know it's no longer relevant.
You know it makes no sense.

Because sooner or later
the levee going to crack
it's gonna overflow with sorrow
and we can't hold it back.

Nothing good could ever come from,
This tonight, it just isn't right.
We're spinning our wheels and wasting time.
No matter what we say,
Cause,

The well has run out of water
The river, it's run dry,
Hey bartender pour me out another
Cause I think I'm staying here tonight.
Nothing's black or white.
I don't want to fight,
So I've said my last goodbye.

You know we're just playing a losers game. Yeah
You know we're just lost in a masquerade. Yeah.
Don't you feel, don't you feel it's just cheap charade?
Because,

The well has run out of water
The river, it's run dry.
Hey bartender pour me out another
Cause I gonna be staying here tonight.

The Well. The Well.
There's nothing left in the well.

The Well. The Well.
There's nothing left in the well.

And the river has run dry.
