LYRICS:

I should have known better
To see what I could see
My black shroud
Holding down my feelings
A pillar for my enemies

I should have wrote a letter
And grieve what I happen to grieve
My black shroud
I never trust my feelings
I waited for the remedy

When I was three, three maybe four
She left us at that video store
Be my rest, be my fantasy

I’m light as a feather
I’m bright as the Oregon breeze
My black shroud 
Frightened by my feelings
I only want to be a relief

No, I’m not a go-getter
The demon had a spell on me
My black shroud
Captain of my feelings
The only thing I want to believe

When I was three, and free to explore
I saw her face on the back of the door
Be my vest, be my fantasy

I should have known better
Nothing can be changed
The past is still the past
The bridge to nowhere
I should’ve wrote a letter 
Explaining what I feel, that empty feeling

Don’t back down, concentrate on seeing
The breakers in the bar, the neighbor’s greeting
My brother had a daughter
The beauty that she brings, illumination

Don’t back down, there is nothing left
The breakers in the bar, no reason to live
I’m a fool in the fetter
Rose of Aaron’s beard, where you can reach me

Don’t back down: nothing can be changed
Cantilever bridge, the drunken sailor
My brother had a daughter
The beauty that she brings, illumination

In “Carrie and Lowell,” Sufjan Stevens is a child again or, more specifically, the child character in the family of man drama that often but not always centers on the story of love given, or love forsaken, but isn’t that the same thing to the poet? That the love Stevens sings about having left or given or been born to–thank you, Carrie–is a perceptible wound not only on the singer’s throat, but his sleeve: he wears love’s incomprehensibility, and the deep incomprehensibility of being a son, like a backing vocal on “Carrie and Lowell,” which is also filled with colors, hearts, trees, conclusions, and beginnings,

Sufjan Stevens, "Eugene"

Sufjan Stevens, "Drawn To The Blood"

Sufjan Stevens, "All Of Me Wants All Of You"

Happy 10th Anniversary to Carrie & Lowell, one of the true great albums.

Death with Dignity (Sufjan Stevens Cover)

This sad core song is about a situation we'll all likely experience at some point. It's when someone you love passes away. It's comforting to hear their spirit speak to you. And that's what this song is about.
Filled with harmonica and cello, it evokes a melancholic feeling, and I hope it helps you process a precious loss.

******************************

I’m the spirit in the sky… watching over you
Every heartbeat whispers what we once knew
Clouds drift slowly… pulling me through
Every fading sunset leads me back to you

I'm the spirit in the sky... 
Know that I miss you…

Even though I’m gone… I’m never far away
In every gentle breeze… every warm sun ray
My love stays close… always near
You feel me in the silence… I’m still here

Better days will come… but I still ache inside
Memories hit softly… like an endless tide 
I see your tears falling in the rain
But I’m beside you… easing the pain

I'm the spirit in the sky... 
Know that I miss you…

I'm the spirit in the sky.
I’m never far away
Know that I miss you…
I miss you 
Know that I miss you
I miss you 
And even from heaven…
I’m still loving you.
