hold on to 16 as long as you can, changes come around real soon, make us women and men

If you look at your reflection in the bottom of a well,
what you see is only on the surface.
If you try to see the meaning hidden underneath,
the measure of the depth can be deceiving.
The bottom has a rocky reputation…
You can feel it in the distance, the deeper down you stare
From up above it's hard to see, but you know it when you're there.
On the bottom words are shallow,
on the surface talk is cheap,
and you can only judge the distance by the company you keep.

-Joe Walsh, "The Confessor"
