Fourth Of July (900x Remix) Lyrics - Sufjan Stevens

The evil it spread like a fever ahead 

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 enough talk 

My little hawk, why do you cry? 

Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn? 

Or the Fourth of July? 

We're all gonna die

Sitting at the bed with the halo at your head 

Was it all a disguise, like Junior High 

Where everything was fiction, future, and prediction 

Now, where am I? My fading supply 

Did you get enough love, my little dove 

Why do you cry? 

And I'm sorry I left, but it was for the best 

Though it never felt right 

My little Versailles 

The hospital asked should the body be cast 

Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky 

Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth 

Do you find it all right, my dragonfly? 

Shall we look at the moon, my little loon 

Why do you cry? 

Make the most of your life, while it is rife 

While it is light 

Photos 

Well you do enough talk 

My little hawk, why do you cry? 

Tell me what did you learn from the Tillamook burn? 

Or the Fourth of July? 

We're all gonna die
