Sufjan Stevens & Angelo De Augustine - "Pillar of Souls" (Official Audio)

Order/listen to "A Beginner's Mind" here: sufjanangelo.f...
Lyrics:
I slept for five days
In stillness I laid full of demonic visions
My still-life remains like the path of a pigeon
That flew into flames from the rivals of hell
Raised from the dead, to save my soul
J.P Monroe tied up his ghost
Life was just like a camera show
Captured in song, my life gives blood
It’s all flesh in my mind
I can’t wait to inscribe
All the names that I’ve read in the blood of your knife
Heaven and hell await all who give of their life
I’ve been waiting this time
Now covered in chains
My skin is ablated with bleeding incision
And still, life remains, my cadaver imprisoned
As you shall retain me and raise me from hell
Cenobite seized within the throes
To be released from the pillar of souls
Dragged from the dark, my love extolled
Bring me the beast, my life gives blood
It’s all flesh in my mind
I can’t wait to describe
All the dead that I’ve raised with the blood of your knife
Heaven help me await all who give of their life
Drink the blood of my wine

Suf that's the best one

[@momobunny1234]

As a fan who's been listening since I was a baby, this is easily my new favorite song of his. So thoughtfully written, and ethereal. It's completely different from anything I've ever heard from him, but at the same time it sounds so classically Sufjan.

[@Baneheart666]

Only discovered you after watching mystery of love a couple of months ago. Still obsessed with your songs, and another one comes along. Beautiful piece with a mesmerizing eerieness.

[@bibekpawn6175]

listen to his old albums too

[@richterschmitt1089]

Welcome to heaven, your ears will be blessed here!

[@baschfonrosenburg8003]

Imo Sears tower is his best along with predatory wasps.

[@bibekpawn6175]

@@baschfonrosenburg8003 totally disagree. His almost every song is best haha

[@angeltoledano3038]

[@nixthelatter]

This stuff feels like old sufjan. I love it!

[@lanielane19]

I can't explain how much i appreciate every note,sound, string, voice and every word. It's as if it's so familiar but new. Strange how your music has been around and I've just discovered it. So eye opening and captivating. The details from beginning to end fills my soul with serenity. Thank you.

Bella melodía para estar en un feliz purgatorio. Oración y gozo para un mundo liberado de tutelas espirituales

No puedo dejar de escuchar esta canción, como me encanta ❤️

[@yash_0745]

Amazing! Really needed a new sufjan album right now 😌❤️❤️

[@zersch.]

I just rewatched JP Monroe flex his muscles until a young lady backed into Pinhead in the Pillar of Souls last night and immediately thought about this masterpiece. It's the most hilarious thing in the world to me that this movie birthed this beautiful song.

[@corinazmau150]

Absolute amazing

[@carolinamunoz6639]

Sublime

[@victorborgesa]

talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before, unafraid to reference or not reference, put it in a blender, shit on it, vomit on it, eat it, give birth to it

[@alexalopez9415]

❤️

[@mikethareaper1789]

What the hell how does he know so well haha i wish i could talk to him

[@astridmaro]

Happy new year peoplee

[@RobMattsson]

God fucking damn

[@eglantined.t.1276]

At 2:52 ("drink the blood of my wine"), it makes me think about Sufjan's song "Tonya Harding" (various passages in that song, but for example at 4:06, "shining American star" : ruclips.net/video/PUvVjWR3zTQ/видео.html)

[@inisaiahsfreezer]

this is so fucking underrated

[@baalsguestjar106]

When are you going to write "Baals Baallad" about him finding The Ark in Ars sur Formans with St Johns Heart sitting in the Mercy Seat

[@jini8195]

im inlove with you sufjan
