Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell lyrics
[Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell lyrics]
3, 4
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
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
