City of Roses - Sufjan Stevens

[00:06.77]A break in the clouds is a break in my day
[00:11.92]Face the sun of my salvation
[00:18.78]As Hathaway Jones would have made it his own fate
[00:24.11]Fly by the wings of your creation
[00:29.99]
[00:30.50]On the top of your head, there is a poem
[00:33.57]The thought in my head, oh God only knows
[00:36.70]As everything else will disappoint you
[00:42.70]I used to be young and bold, but now I'm afraid, I'm getting so old
[00:48.69]I follow delight to the City of Roses
[00:52.66]
[01:06.49]It's a little-known fact that I can't cope
[01:12.09]I’m the champion of repression
[01:18.65]I've had it enough with the east coast
[01:23.80]I'll die by the wings of my ambition
[01:29.98]
[01:30.72]The city I left, the city of throes
[01:33.70]The one that I loved, the city of hope
[01:36.70]As everything else will disappoint you
[01:42.63]I used to be young and bold, but now I'm of age, I'm getting so old
[01:48.80]I follow delight to the City of Roses
[01:52.84]
[01:54.68]A break in the clouds is a break in my day
