Mildred Wright III Lyrics by The Foresters

House Stories

2017

[Verse 1]
Passing by the farms and empty fields in my old town
In the yards, just sun-bleached, rusted scrap upon the ground
They all settled somewhere else just a few miles down
So synthetic, they regret it, hope they’ll come around

[Chorus 1]
We lived it all in a stone brick wall not so far from the shore
But truth is that every settlement is looking for some more
No one can keep from going out the door

[Verse 2]
Here's the place where people declare all they thought was true
It never was but what else did they really have to do?
Over there a silent man lives talking to himself
No one knows if he shares his house with somebody else

[Chorus 2]
A hundred showers just broke the hands of Mildred Wright III
She sits above the council waiting for someone to hear her words
That everything these days is so absurd

[Solo]

[Chorus 1]
We lived it all in a stone brick wall not so far from the shore
But truth is that every settlement is looking for some more
No one can keep from going out the door
