Impossible Soul

[Part 1: Sufjan] Oh, woman, tell me what you want And I'll calm down without bleeding out With a broken heart that you stabbed for an hour Woman, I was freaking out because I want you to know My beloved, you are the lover of my impossible soul Woman, too, promise me you'll stay and put off all your woes I was wigging out, too much worry I could not get you at all And you said what you want, you would laugh it off But I know you won't go, not for it at last Must you write it off for the impossible soul? And I was in a dream, I was gone away without you, but not too slow Lest I put it off, for I put it right for the impossible soul And all I couldn't sing, I would say it all, my life, to you If I could get you at all Don't be a wreck, trying to be something that I wasn't at all Seems I got it wrong, I was chasing after something that was gone To the black of night, now I know it's not what I wanted at all And you said something like, "All you want is all the world for yourself" But all I want is the perfect love Though I know it's small, I want love for us all And all I couldn't sing, I would say it all, my life, to you If I could get you at all Trying to be something that I wasn't at all [Part 2: Shara Worden & (Sufjan Stevens)] Do you want to be afraid? Do you want to be afraid? For life in the cage where courage's mate runs deep in the wake For the scariest things are not half as enslaved Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Do you want to be alone? Do you want to be alone? For life isn't stained of righteousness pain The seed and the hail, all impossible flights for an interesting light Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Do you want to love me more? Do you want to love me more? For love is the breath If water and wave Is cursed by the same thing that nurtured its shame Is it worth all the work? Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Have you failed to feel delight? (No, I don't want to feel pain) Have you failed to feel delight? (No, I don't want to feel pain) Instead of the life, lived tired and lost, have you left it at last Where it floundered its death with the language of ghosts Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Do you want to be afraid? (No, I don't want to feel pain) Do you want to be afraid? (No, I don't want to feel pain) For life in the cage (for life in the cage) Where courage's mate (where courage's mate) Runs deep in the wake (runs deep in the wake) For the scariest things (for the scariest things) Are not half as enslaved (are not half as enslaved) Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Now Don't be distracted, don't be distracted Now (No, don't be distracted) (x13) [Instrumental break] [Part 3: Sufjan] Stupid man in the window, I couldn't be at rest All my delight, all that mattered, I couldn't be at rest From what I liked, from what I gathered, I couldn't be at rest Stupid man in the window, I couldn't be at rest And don't be shy in the window Come down and give your best Oh, delight in the window I couldn't be at rest Stupid man in the window, I couldn't be at rest From what I liked, from what I gathered, I couldn't give my best Oh, I know it wasn't safe, it wasn't safe to breathe at all Oh, I know it wasn't safe, it wasn't safe to breathe at all Oh, I know it wasn't safe, it wasn't safe to breathe at all Oh, I know it wasn't safe, it wasn't safe to speak at all Hold on, Suf Hold on, Suf Hold on, Sufjan Hold on, Suf Hold on, Suf Hold on, Sufjan Hold on, Suf Hold on, Suf Hold on, Sufjan 1, 2, 3, 4!
