Dumb I Sound — Sufjan Stevens

Something's suddenly unclear, Someone's suddenly my fear. My eyes demand like broken eaves. The ladel overspills on eaves.

If you once knew How I loved you.

And my bruise-colored eyes peel Every image to your face and heel. And if you're happy I am too, And if you're sleeping, I'm with you.

But you love someone else. But you want to be with someone else. And I can't believe how dumb I sound, And I will put my face over the ground And love you.
