Everything That Rises
Sufjan Stevens
Can you lift me up to a higher place?
Forget everything that was before
Turn your face around like a salted sphere
Turn yourself around to see what once was there
Everything that rises must converge
Everything that rises in a word
Everything that rises must converge
Everything that rises
Jesus lift me up to a higher plane
(To a higher plane)
Can you come around before I go insane?
(Before I go insane)
Cast me not in stone, while my demons rage
(While my demons rage)
Turn yourself around to see what I can say
(To see what I can say)
Everything that rises must converge
Everything that rises in a word
Everything that rises must converge
Everything that rises
Turn yourself away
From the wickedness I said
Evil comes to play
In the image of the dead
Everything rises must converge
Everything rises in a word
Everything rises must converge
Everything rises
Everything rises (everything rises)
Everything rises (everything rises)
Everything rises (everything rises)
Everything rises
