Sufjan Stevens - The Black Hawk War, Or, How To Demolish An Entire lyrics

In my happy home I barely breathe

In my lovers arms I find relief

And there's a sky that's changing and a bird that sings

I never once in my wayward life was heading to run out

In my lovers arms I wait for morning

I beg my god to speak and tear me apart

I'd lay down my body I'd lay down my arms

I never once in my sweet short life meant anybody harm

In my happy home i read the signs

In my lovers arms I move in time

There's no more crying and there's no more lies

I never once in my sweet short life was waiting for desire

And there's no more crying

And there's no more pain

I never thought for one second I'd have nothing left but shame

In my happy home I barely breathe

I never once in my wayward life was heading to run out
