Another track of the forthcoming ‘High Violet’ album. “With my kids on my shoulders I try not to hurt anybody out loud / But I don’t have the drugs to sort it out.”

  2. Casimir Pulaski Day (live on KCRW) — Sufjan Stevens

    …In the morning when you finally go
    And the nurse runs in with her head hung low
    And the cardinal hits the window

    In the morning in the winter shade
    On the first of March, on the holiday
    I thought I saw you breathing

    All the glory that the Lord has made
    And the complications when I see His face
    In the morning in the window

    All the glory when He took our place
    But He took my shoulders and He shook my face
    And He takes and He takes and He takes…
