[00:00.34] The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us - Sufjan Stevens
[00:02.68]
[00:18.83] Thinking outrageously I write in cursive
[00:23.34] I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor
[00:27.49]
[00:28.21] Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers
[00:32.58] I see my own breath on the face of the door
[00:37.00]
[00:37.63] Oh I am not quite sleeping
[00:41.78]
[00:42.59] Oh I am fast in bed
[00:46.33]
[00:46.96] There on the wall in the bedroom creeping
[00:51.79] I see a wasp with her wings outstretched
[00:55.87]
[01:34.46] North of Savanna we swim in the Palisades
[01:38.93] I come out wearing my brother's red hat
[01:42.86]
[01:43.57] There on his shoulder my best friend is bit seven times
[01:48.95] He runs washing his face in his hands
[01:53.14] Oh how I meant to tease him
[01:57.81] Oh how I meant no harm
[02:02.31] Touching his back with my hand I kiss him
[02:07.09] I see the wasp on the length of my arm
[02:11.70]
[02:30.59] Oh great sights upon this state hallelu
[02:40.12] Wonders bright and rivers lake hallelu
[02:49.13]
[02:49.68] Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake hallelu
[02:58.87] Trusting things beyond mistake hallelu
[03:08.02]
[03:17.94] We were in love we were in love
[03:21.89]
[03:22.51] Palisades Palisades
[03:24.86] I can wait I can wait
[03:27.31] Lamb of God we sound the horn
[03:34.65]
[03:35.49] Hallelujah
[03:36.64]
[03:37.73] To us your ghost is born
[03:44.22]
[03:44.78] Hallelu
[03:45.55]
[03:47.37] I can't explain the state that I'm in
[03:51.03]
[03:51.81] The state of my heart he was my best friend
[03:55.70]
[03:56.56] Into the car from the backseat
[04:00.42]
[04:01.17] Oh admiration in falling asleep
[04:05.19]
[04:06.00] All of my powers day after day
[04:10.00]
[04:10.84] I can tell you we swaggered and swayed
[04:14.60]
[04:15.31] Deep in the tower the prairies below
[04:19.32]
[04:20.02] I can tell you the telling gets old
[04:23.92]
[04:24.91] Terrible sting and terrible storm
[04:28.72]
[04:29.49] I can tell you the day we were born
[04:33.44]
[04:34.19] My friend is gone he ran away
[04:38.24]
[04:38.89] I can tell you I love him each day
[04:42.87]
[04:43.63] Though we have sparred wrestled and raged
[04:47.50]
[04:48.37] I can tell you I love him each day
[04:52.25]
[04:53.10] Terrible sting and terrible storm
[04:56.95]
[04:57.65] I can tell you
