The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades is out to get us
The Predatory Wasp of the Palisades Is Out to Get Us! - Sufjan Stevens
Thinking outrageously I write in cursive
I hide in my bed with the lights on the floor
Wearing three layers of coats and leg warmers
I see my own breath on the face of the door
Oh, I am not quite sleeping
Oh, I am fast in bed
There on the wall, in the bedroom, creeping
I see a wasp with her wings outstretched
North of Savanna we swim in the Palisades
I come out wearing my brother's red hat
There on his shoulder, my best friend is bit seven times
He runs washing his face in his hands
Oh, how I meant to tease him
Oh, how I meant no harm
Touching his back with my hand, I kiss him
I see the wasp on the length of my arm
Oh, great sights upon this state, hallelu…
Wonders bright, and rivers, lake, hallelu…
Trail of Tears and Horseshoe Lake, hallelu…
Trusting things beyond mistake, hallelu…
We were in love, we were in love
Palisades, Palisades
I can wait, I can wait
Lamb of God we sound the horn
Hallelujah
To us your ghost is born
Hallelu…
I can't explain the state that I'm in
The state of my heart, he was my best friend
Into the car, from the backseat
Oh, admiration in falling asleep
All of my powers day after day
I can tell you we swaggered and swayed
Deep in the tower, the prairies below
I can tell you the telling gets old
Terrible sting and terrible storm
I can tell you the day we were born
My friend is gone, he ran away
I can tell you I love him each day
Though we have sparred, wrestled and raged
I can tell you I love him each day
Terrible sting and terrible storm
I can tell you…
