Sufjan Stevens - They Also Mourn Who Do Not Wear Black lyrics

If you happen to be educated Time it marches on, oh time it marches on. In the end there is a sacred show delivers every song, delivers every song. Mourning steps and mourning gallivants And mourning never shows, no mourning never slows. If the avatar reminds that it will never stand at all, will never stand as tall. Since the water made it, most to sail it, made it most to song, it made it most to song. For the politics are not political for what they stand, For not what they demand. Every senator and diplomat combines her certain part, A matter for the heart. Save yourself from recognition. selfless and quite song To better get along. (We love you. We Chose to. We made to. We love you.) If we concentrate and pull resources to the highest poll, To beat the highest pull, too. Ever will we conquer grief and find it faster to resolve the dead, to be absolved and fed, to restore. If the advantageous reprimand misgivings, We wont grow. We will not ever know. We will not! (Lift my life in healthy places!)
