Lyrics Sufjan Stevens

Sufjan Stevens

Gilgamesh

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost, forgive me

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost, forgive me

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost, forgive me

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost, forgive me

(Only the lonely)

Reach out for what remains before you

Reach out for what remains at hand

For as it was in the beginning

So shall it cease at my command (Only the lonely)

Now place your head below your waistline

Breathe deeply as the pain subsides

And with your final breath, remember

The day of rest has now arrived (Only the lonely)

Oh, my heart will leave you now, surrender

Oh, my heart receives you now with arms full of harvest

Oh, my heart has fallen for its fear of feelings

Stay close to me, my love

Theosophy in elegy, love me

Oh, my heart will fantasize of Eden

My love, my dream, make love to me

Surrender your spirit, sing my eulogy

Oh, my heart is chained to thee, my angel

You haven't seen the last of me, my love

I give you everything

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost without you

(Only the lonely)

Four degrees off the ground

I am lost without you

(Only the lonely)

I am lost without you

(Only the lonely)

I am lost without you

(Only the lonely)
