When the Well Runs Dry Lyrics

What will you do when the well runs dry?
Would you steal what you could from the state?
Would you steal from your friends?
You can't know how you would act in your darkest hour. You don't know what you could do if you were desperate enough.
'Cause when the stakes climb so high that they blot out the sun and leave us wandering 'round in a night so black that we lose sight of any and all reason, rationalizations make the ends justify the means.
Can you remember the life you lived, back before this draught came on, ya before the well ran dry?
You can't know how you would act in your darkest hour. You don't know what you could do if you were desperate enough.
So as you leaf through the pages of history, let your stomach churn but don't turn up your nose, 'cause we're not so different from the participants in atrocities past.
So don't tell yourself it could never happen here!
