Sufjan Stevens - Death With Dignity Тексты

spirit of my silence, I can hear you
but I'm afraid to be near you
and I don't know where to begin
and I don't know where to begin


somewhere in the desert there's a forest
and an anchor before us
but I don't know where to begin
and I don't know where to begin


again I lost my strength completely
oh be near me
tired old mare
with the wind in your hair


amethyst and flowers on the table
is it real or a fable
well I suppose a friend is a friend
and we all know how this will end


chimney sweep that finds me be my keeper
silhouette of the ceder
what is that song you sing for the dead
what is that song you sing for the dead


I see the signal searchlight strike me in the window
and above my room
well I got nothing to prove
well I got nothing to prove


I forgive you mother I can hear you
and I'd love to be near you
but every road leads to an end
yes every road leads to an end


your apparition passes through me
in the willows
and five red hens
you'll never see us again
you'll never see us again
