Death With Dignity Lyrics - Carrie & Lowell - Sufjan Stevens

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 acre before us 

But I don't know where to begin 

But I don't know where to begin 

Again I've 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 swift that finds me, be my keeper 

Silhouette of the cedar 

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 of my room 

Well I got nothing to prove 

Well I got nothing to prove 

I forgive you, mother, I can hear you 

And I long 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: 

Five red hens—you'll never see us again 

You'll never see us again
