Death With Dignity - 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 (On the table)

Is it real or a fable?

(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 (Be my keeper)

Silhouette of the cedar (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 (I can hear you)

And I long to be near 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
