Age of Adz

Age of Adz - Sufjan Stevens Lyrics

(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rots
(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rots
(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rots
(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rotsWell I have known you
For just a little while
But I feel I've known you
I feel I've seen you
When the Earth was split in fivesAnd in your words, I
Should let it out, I
Would see you die
But I'm a watcher
I see you watch her
It's in your afterlife
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal living
I'll keep from trying
I'll keep from caring
You are the lie
We see you trying to
Be something else that
You're not, we think you're niceThe circumstances
Of what I thought, I
Could see it now
I wouldn't be so
I wouldn't feel so
But it's a running wild
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal living
When it dies, when it dies, it rots
And when it lives, when it lives
It gives it all it's got
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal living(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rots
(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It gives it all it's got
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal livingIn all reflections
I see your method
I see it all
And what about you?
And what about me?
Are we the lost of lost?Don't speak too soon, don't
Be fruit of loom, don't
Excite yourself
For what you see is
Not fantasy, it's
Not what begets, but gives
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal livingIn all reflections
I see it mentioned
I see it all
The gorgeous mess of
Your face impressed us
Imposed of all its art
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal livingWhen it dies, when it dies, it rots
And when it lives, when it lives
It gives it all it's got
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal living(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It rots
(Oh Oh Oh Oh) It gives it all it's got
This is the Age of Adz
Eternal livingWhen I die, when I die, I'll rot
But when I live, when I live
I'll give it all I've gotWhen I die, when I die, I'll rot
But when I live, when I live
I'll give it all I've gotGloria, Gloria, it lasts
Victoria, Victoria
It lives in all of usGloria, Gloria, it lasts (Gloria)
Victoria, Victoria
It lives in all of usI've lost the will to fight
I was not made for life
I've lost the will to fight
I was not made for lifeNow I have known you
For just a little while
I feel I must be wearing my welcome
I must be moving onFor my intentions were good intentions
I could have loved you
I could have changed you
I wouldn't be so
I wouldn't feel so
Consumed by selfish thoughtsI'm sorry if I seem self-effacing
Consumed by selfish thoughts
It's only that I still love you deeply
It's all the love I've got
