But yeah, they make the future seem…
Acknowledging the potential fabrication of stories but recognizing their impact on shaping the future.

On the other...
Reiterating the desire for a positive outcome in an unspecified "other" space or time.
I crashed into the well
Repeating the metaphor of crashing into the well, possibly emphasizing the recurrence of personal crises.
Can you help me out?
Reiterating the plea for assistance in overcoming the challenges posed by the symbolic well.
Sometimes when you fall like that
Reemphasizing the difficulty of recovering from a significant fall or failure.
There's no getting up
Reiterating the seemingly insurmountable nature of certain challenges.
