Sufjan Stevens - Age Of Adz lyrics

[Intro] Oh, oh, it rots Oh, oh, it rots Oh, oh, it rots [Verse 1] Well 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 fives And in your words, I Should let it out, I Would see it die But I'm a watcher I see it watch her It's in your afterlife This is the Age of Adz Eternal living Oh, keep from trying Oh, keep from caring You are the life We see you trying to Be something else that You're not, we think you're nice The 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 [Chorus] When it dies, when it dies It rots And when it lives, when it lives It gives it all it gots This is the Age of Adz Eternal living Oh, oh, it rots Oh, oh, it gives it all it gots This is the Age of Adz Eternal living [Verse 2] And all reflections I see your method I see it all And what about you?
