Innocence was never lost

Though it may have been insulted

Even if the earth forgot

Her inheritance resulted

In contradiction ceremony

Benediction...

The Transfiguration - Sufjan Stevens
When he took the three disciples to the mountainside to pray

His countenance was modified, his clothing was afla...

Now that I fell into your arms
My only lover
Give out to give in
I search for the capsule I lost
Drag me to hell in the valley of The Dalles
Like my m...

Can you lift me up to a higher place?
Forget everything that was before
Turn yourself around to see what once was there

Everything that rises must co...

Oh, my life

 In every possible way

And if you know it for yourself
Then everybody else
Well they can tell
When L-O-V-E love gets into your heart
And everyone can see
How br...

It was night when you died, my firefly
What could I have said to raise you from the dead?
Oh could I be the sky on the fourth of July?
"Well you do en...

To Be Alone With You
sufjan stevens

I'd swim across Lake Michigan
I'd sell my shoes
I'd give my body to be back again
In the rest of the room

To be ...

It's been a long, long time since
I've memorized your face
It's been four hours now since
I've wandered through your place
And when I sleep on your co...

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro

Tie up your boots
Jump off the ladder
Pack up your clothes
Nothing's the matter
Mistletoe hangs up in the bedroom

Shall we beat this or celebrate it?
You're not the one to talk things through
You checked your text while I masturbated
Manelich, I feel so used

I should have known better,
To see what I could see,
My black shroud,
Holding down my feelings,
A pillar for my enemies,
I should have wrote a letter,...

You used to call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
Call me on my cell phone
Late night when you need my love
And I know when that h...

Kill - Sufjan Stevens

He took the stable
Bred me to be a mare
Made the brethren able

Gave me a room

I never asked him

I never meant to stay

He dr...

Leviathan first hid in the deep
Where her children sleep
She kept them hidden from the plague
But have you he...

First day of the week
Stumbling words at the bar
Beauty blue eyes
My order of fries
Long Island kindness and wine
Beloved of John
I get it all wrong

Am I fireproof or am I on fire?
The two appear to be the same
Mount St. Helens made a fuss for a while
And she covered us in shame
As we make up

What are you now
Castrated by your son
From Aphrodesia
You ***less fraud
From chaos choreographed
Defiled us in a fit of rage
The earth will find it's...

Oh could I be the sky on the fourth of July

You are there and then you're not.

Christmas In The Room -Sufjan Stevens
No candy canes or Santa Claus
For as the day of rest draws near
It's just the two of us this year
No silver bell...

I called a name over the ocean
 Lacrimal tears, fears of devotion

 All the dreams I vowed to make come true
 And the life I long to take I lose
 Lord...

My love, I've lost my faith in everything
Tell me you love me anyway
Tell me you love me anyway
Tell me you love me
My love, I feel myself unravelling...

If I am alive this time next year
Will I have arrived in time to share?
Mine is about as good this far
And I'm still applied to what you are
And I am ...

Once in the backyard
She was once like me,
She was once like me
Twice when I killed them
They were once at peace
They were once like me

Lover, will you look at me now?
I'm already dead to you
But I'm inclined to explain
To you what
I could not before
Whatever you didn't do, what you co...

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 acre bef...

One two three four
O come o come Emmanuel
And ransom captive Israel
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appears
Rejoice, rejoice, re...

So you are tired of us
 So rest your head
 Turning back fourteen years
 Of what I did and said

 So you are breathing disaster
 I did what I was told

I don't wanna be your personal Jesus

In a way I wanna be my own believer

I saw three ships come sailin' in
On Christmas day in the morning
And what was in...

Take a little piece of this and tell them where to start
Make a little circle right before you fall apart
I'll lay down the cards just like the way yo...

Oh God, hold me now
Oh Lord, hold me now
There's no other man who could raise the dead
So do what you can to anoint my head
Oh God, where are you now?...
