One of Fractal Rock's earliest tunes, it opens with a Floydesque intro which degenerates into a Crimsonish fragment for a verse followed by a chorus that was sourced in part from the classical piece "Saturn" from "The Planets Suite" by Gustav Holst. Joel said it sound like falling down a well, and DaveT said it sounded more like falling up a well, none of us are really sure what the dif is.... but the title stuck.

Falling up The Well

Everywhere I go
everything I do
** turning burning

thoughts I used to think
used to think were true
though Ia€™m angry
keeping it inside myself

all this crazy
** falling up the well
falling up the well...
I dona€™t know
how they let it get this far
**why I let it
eat me up inside
Like a tidal wave it rushes over me

I just wish
it would wash me out to sea
wash me out to sea
take me out to sea . . . please.

(Chorus)
While a€¦Ia€™m a€¦sleeping
I am flying over
fields of golden dreams
lakes and cooling,
effervescing springsa€¦.

Everywhere I go
everything I do

running circles
I just never get a clue

When I dream
everything is vivid clear

why is it
I can get no one to hear.
get no one to hear..
get no one to heara€¦(.here)\

I just want
I just want some peace of mind

something I
something that I need find

Therea€™s a chance
I will never leave this hell

It makes me crazy
always falling up the wella€¦
falling up the well
always falling up the wella€¦

(Chorus)
While a€¦Ia€™m a€¦sleeping
I am flying over
fields of golden dreams
lakes and cooling,
cool refreshing springs

It would always seem
that Ia€™m running up a hill

out of breath
therea€™s no end in sight I feel

holding on
to every little bit of hope

hanging on
to the bitter end of the rope....

I am crazy
**always falling
falling up the well
falling up the well
I am falling up the well...

Everywhere I go
everything I do

falling up the well
falling up the well
falling up the well
falling falling
