the ascension* - sufjan stevens lyrics

Loading...

when i am dead and the light leaves my breast
nothing to be told, nothing to confess
let the record show what i couldn’t quite confess
for by living for myself i was living for unrest

but now it strikes me far too late again
that i was asking far too much of everyone around me
and now it strikes me far too late again
that i should answer for myself as the ascension falls upon me

and to everything there is no meaning
a season of pain and hopelessness
i shouldn’t have looked for revelation
i should have resigned myself to this
i thought i could change the world around me
i thought i could change the world for best
i thought i was called in convocation
i thought i was sanctified and blessed

i shouldn’t have looked for revelation
i should have resigned myself to this to know the truth at last
that everything comes from consummation
and everything comes with consequence

what now? what now? what now?
