Sufjan Stevens
Beyond All Doubt
[Verse - Serengeti]
LaRousse was showing off hotdogging with a soccer ball
Police beat up kids slamming backs into bathroom walls
That was the 80's
Out of touch like success

Out of touch like a torn chest
I can still bench press
Doctor bills
Illegal uses of prescription pills
Ears feel fuzzy
Paying ex-lovers hush money
I've done things

Never been to Saratoga Springs
Rode to Pensacola on some yola-type viola strings
New York
Best state to go to court
Best state to be in when you're on child support and have no car
I've traveled to Myanmar and George Brett got pissed, too much pine tar
Revoked

I feel like I'm baroque
Enjoy the power
Do you enjoy being choked? Nice!
Are you in need of a breathing device?
Lonely and depressed eating cold fried rice
I was born when I was 21 in life
I had philosophies
If only the world would smoke weed, shit

Then the paranoia
I used to get high like the height of a giant Sequoia
I had everything solved
From ending poverty and moving to Montreal
Then, reality bites
Reality like cut cable and shit, no lights

I had the world figured out beyond any doubt
(doubt)

[Outro]
Hey! If I could figure out what it was all about, I'd work it out
(I had the world figured out beyond any doubt)
