Lyrics:
River of God
Written by Linda Perhacs, Fernando Perdomo, and Chris Price

River of God
River, river, river, river 
River of God


River of god, River of Love
River of god, River of Love


River of god how you fill up the sky
River of god, you’re much greater than I 
There’s a river of souls running fast by my door
There’s a river of souls going where who can know

There’s a river of souls streaming loud through the night
And the roar of the noise fills the sky with it’s might 
And to me it’s a mess and to me makes no sense
And yet all that I hear is a voice deep within saying 

All that I have
All that I am 
I would give for a chance 
To help them with their lives 

All that I have
All that I am 
I would give for a chance 
To help them with their lives 

River of God
River of Love

River of god how you fill up the sky
River of god you’re much greater than I 

River of god there’s an eclipse of the sun
The darkness is rising we’re all on the run
Forgive me your failings forgive us our wailings
When love is not loved then the darkness will come 
And when love is within ,all the light will return 
Like a river of love , like a river of sun

All that I have
All that I am 
I would give for a chance 
To help them with their lives 

When love is not loved then the darkness will come
When love is within, all the  light will return 
Like a river of love , Like a river of sun
Like a river of love , like a river of sun

Just to help them with their lives

Lyrics:
billet spied
bolt sped
across the field
crows fled
aloft and wounded
left one dead

lover killer
at the wall in the mirror

on the one side I can dream my future
on the other I can feel my nature

inside myself I have a moment to choose
to hold or to refuse
to shoot or to let loose
the cawing crow the pulsing throat

lover killer
at the wall in the mirror

on the one side I can dream my future
on the other I can feel my nature

I am a lover and a killer

LYRICS:
Now that I fell into your arms
My only lover
Give out to give in
I search for the capsule I lost

Drag me to hell
In the valley of The Dalles
Like my mother
Give wings to a stone
It’s only the shadow of a cross

I slept on my back 
In the shade of the meadowlark 
Like a champion
Get drunk to get laid
I take one more hit when you depart

I’ll drive that stake through the center of my heart
Lonely vampire
Inhaling its fire
I’m chasing the dragon too far

There’s blood on that blade
Fuck me, I’m falling apart
My assassin
Like Casper the ghost 
There’s no shade in the shadow of the cross

--------------------------------------------------------


Sufjan Stevens, "No Shade In The Shadow Of The Cross"

My Brightest Diamond, "We Added It Up"

"DANCE GHOST

Lyrics:
pesadillas
se confunden
cuando llegan a ti
largas vueltas
se ven
en tu mente
revuelto
acá
formas tus ilusiones
chica bañaras con mis palabras
alguien
quiere pensar en ti tanto
conozco
conozco bien

Denison Witmer, "Asa"

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.
