mildred

Another Wednesday, if I'm still keeping track of time

You're still dreaming

Maybe you've dreamt this whole world up

Maybe I'm just a dream

Somehow things keep getting worse

Blood in the streets

They shot up city hall and Mayor Engen's house

It's been twenty one days

You're still bathed in 3 streaks of the sun's rays

Brown hair now golden in light

I named the hole Mildred too

Because I was sinking in you

Everyday I hope I'll wake, next to you

And I'm never gonna' sleep again

And I'm never gonna' sleep tonight

If I dive in head first, maybe we'll live again

I'd take you far away from here

I'll take you anywhere you want to go

I pray to god and hope he hears

I pray he's real, pray "save us all"

I fear my judgment but it's destiny

I could see the burning hands in pillars of flame

And as they turn, they turn to ash, I know

I must bring you to safety, and live forever in your dream
