lyrics
Oh, your eyes, your greedy eyes
Your dry and desperate tongue
You’ve told a lie, a lie, a lie
For every pretty note your reedy voice has sung
Do we believe in devils? (No.)
Winged men? The healing power of love? (No.)
Enchantment? Social justice? (No.)
Dead child actors in a white, white world above? (No.)
Why are all these songs about the things that don’t exist?
Do not resist, we’ll burn these lies tonight and never let them live
Oh, stoke the fire, we’ll burn these words tonight and never let them live
The Pooka wings away, his power over me is at an end
And I put down my violin, I leave it down, never again

So glad to found the complete bundle was still available to buy. I couldn't just buy the standalone LP, had to get all the items together to increase my own delight! ♡ One of my favourite records of Sufjan along with Carrie & Lowell and The Greatest Gift. Vinilocioso
