Sometimes I just want to go outside.
Sometimes I just have to close my eyes.
Sometimes I just like to feel the wind blow.
Mostly I just want to see my friends grow.
I've got sleeves if you need something to hold onto.
I've got lots of things I'm still trying to work through.
I do my best to fill up my time.
I keep most of my thoughts in my mind.
There's so many things around that can distract us.
We'll never get good at things unless we practice.
We've hung up signs so many times in the city that we live in.
We've read these books so many times that we've memorized what's in them.
We tell ourselves because we're older we understand why things are breaking.
We've done these things for so long we've convinced ourselves that we're not faking.
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
