Written some time in 2012, it's become one of Earl's favorite tracks to perform and a personal favorite lyrically.
lyrics
I had a dream once that we were God's dream
But God can dream what he wants, why would he dream of me?
I imagine what I want
Pretend how I feel
But I'm scared like a child
To reveal what's real
And when the sun sets, when I see the moon shine, another day dies, I know you'll all be here when I open my eyes
I know I'm too young to feel this old
Sometimes I feel like I'm leasing my soul
I know I don't have a whole lot left
But for you all I'll never go to bed
