The Fire
D. A. R. Lyrics

Sorry that we took so long
We apologize for the delay between you requesting your song and us finally performing it for you.

You probably thought we forgot your song
We understand that it seemed like we might have forgotten, but we didn't.

It makes us smile just so you know
Knowing that our music brings you joy is really heartwarming to us.

To see your eyes at our shows
We love to see the happiness reflected in your eyes as you enjoy our performances.

I wrote this song while I was drunk
This song was written under the influence of alcohol.

I hope you don't mind that it was wine
I hope you aren't offended that I wrote this song while drinking wine.

But you called me and said you didn't want your friends to know
You requested that I keep your identity a secret from your friends.

But what if you had to go
But what if you had to leave and couldn't keep your identity a secret?

What about then
What would happen in that scenario?

What about then Mildred
What if you had to leave, what would happen then, Mildred (or music)?

Sing us a song today
We would like to hear you sing a song for us right now.

Awayay, awayay awayay, awayay awayay, awayay awayay
This is a fun and catchy chant that we want everyone to participate in.

Or maybe I'm in your car just driving away
It's possible that I am driving in your car, heading away from our current location.

And everything's o.k.
In this scenario, everything is okay and we are content.

Where there's golden bees and silver birds
In this alternate reality, there are bees made of gold and birds made of silver.

And dreams are like shootin' come true and heard
In this reality, dreams come true easily and are always heard.

And every moment feels like a spin Mildred
Every moment is exciting and exhilarating in this new reality, Mildred (or music).

I mean, a spin music
I meant to say 'a spin, music,' instead of calling you 'Mildred.'

Where every star flickers bright as sister
In this other reality, every star shines just as brightly as your sister.

Just for the whisper commands your love
Everything beautiful in this reality exists only because of the power of your love.

The bright sun in the sky all the flowers harmonize
The sun and the flowers work together in harmony in this beautiful alternate reality.

And that's where your starry eyes will stand above
In this beautiful place, your eyes will shine brighter than any star in the sky.

The fuck I mean Mildred
I'm frustrated that I called you 'Mildred' instead of 'music.'

How the fuck you gonna tell me it's Mildred (I'm sorry) and not music
I'm cursing because I'm angry at myself for getting your name wrong, but I understand that you prefer to be called 'Mildred' instead of 'music.'

Fuck it
I'm overreacting, I need to just let it go.
