Carrie & Lowell Lyrics - Carrie & Lowell - Sufjan Stevens

Carrie and Lowell 

Such a long time ago 

Like a dead horse 

Meadowlark, drive your arrow 

Season of hope (after the flood) 

Valentine, spurn my sorrow 

Head on the floorboards (covered in blood) 

Drunk as a horsefly 

Climb on the mattress pad 

Twist my arm 

Under the pear tree 

Shadows and light conspiring 

Covered bridge, I scream 

Cottage Grove shade, invite me 

I will bow down (Dido's lament) 

Lord of the ancient waters 

From the backyard (as far as she went) 

Carrie surprised me 

Erebus on my back 

My lucky charm 

Carried by stones 

Fairyland all around us 

Like a dead horse 

Sign of your children's fever 

Carrie, come home (Thorazine's friend) 

Holding your hands with Opal 

Like a dead horse (shall we ascend?) 

Flight of the mayfly 

Ephemera on my back 

She breaks my arm
