i don't feel like going out
take off your socks
come sit with me
let's talk
i don't wanna die
when you say you find
a better self in me
the twisted now feels right
if only miles away
if only you would stay
we'd fall if we could stand
you always make me say
i've done all i could do
i'll think things through
i like myself much more
when i smell like you
and all the world went through
the changes brought by you
a fundamental noise
we've heard and felt true joy
close your eyes and feel
the things around your body
all the weighted knees
and blades crumble free
(i dont feel much like going out come sit with me let's talk)
close your eyes and feel
the space around your body
every memory
of hiding, tuck your feet
(tear off your socks come sit with me let's talk)
close your eyes and feel
the skin around your body
gentle warm and breathe
you've found home, now sleep

It may not be a full-fledged LP, but All Delighted People is probably my favourite of Sufjan's works. Without an overaching album theme to tie the songs together, it felt like Sufjan was free to experiment on each track and give them their own unique sound. And because of that (and Sufjan's talent), every track on there is a standout track. Angkasawan
