Nara Dreamland - Nicole Dollanganger

We broke into Dreamland

Just so we could have one more day there

But I could not stand to see it in such sad disrepair

He wanted to hold me in the roller coaster carts

Sunken into the ground

All I could think about was how much I wanted to

Burn it all down

He tried to tell me things get abandoned

It’s okay for them to rot

I told him that we should find some gasoline

He said we’d better not

We broke into Dreamland

To find the parts of us that we left behind

But I could not stand the smell of death

When everything was still alive

If only I could pull out the clown’s teeth

Take them home to keep with me

Euthanize the carousel ponies

Put the park out of its misery

He tried to tell me things get abandoned

It’s okay for them to rot

I told him that we should find some gasoline

He said we’d better not
