Lyrics

On this Prague Summer night there’s no sun in the sky
As dusk settles in and I again close my eyes
I didn’t think that I’d wake up today
That last night she’d finally taken it all away

What I feel at the turn of the screw
This dichotomy with which I’m imbued
I looked in the mirror and she wasn’t there
But I felt her fingers creep through my hair

You drink this wine
To stay alive
Millicent
I’d do anything for you

I spoke my truth and then she just sighed
She opened me up, I gave her my insides
I looked to her face but in the dark couldn’t see
I’ve only her freezing hands to guide me

I can’t recover, no, because I’ve crossed that line
I cannot live unless I know that she’s mine
Or more to the point, that I am hers
Call it devotion because it’s not a curse

You drink this wine
To stay alive
Millicent
I’d do anything for you
