    I fell in love again
    All things go, all things go
    Drove to Chicago
    All things know, all things know
    We sold our clothes to the state
    I don't mind, I don't mind
    I made a lot of mistakes
    In my mind, in my mind
    You came to take us
    All things go, all things go
    To recreate us
    All things grow, all things grow
    We had our mindset
    All things know, all things know
    You had to find it
    All things go, all things go
    I drove to New York
    In a van, with my friend
    We slept in parking lots
    I don't mind, I don't mind
    I was in love with the place
    In my mind, in my mind
    I made a lot of mistakes
    In my mind, in my mind
    You came to take us
    All things go, all things go
    To recreate us

    We had our mindset
    All things know, all things know
    You had to find it
    All things go, all things go
    If I was crying
    In the van, with my friend
    It was for freedom
    From myself and from the land
    I made a lot of mistakes
    I made a lot of mistakes
    I made a lot of mistakes
    I made a lot of mistakes
    You came to take us

      I like this song for the same reason I love Radical Face songs. Simple lyrics against the backdrop of harmonious instrumentals . I especially like the horn & strings effect. Scratch that, it’s hard to select, love it all.

    My cousin Matt introduced me to your music back in 2008, this album specifically. I fell in love with Illinois (of course I'm biased in favor of the album, Illinois is where I was born and I have a lot of family there). After his death in 2011, I treasured your music like a keepsake. And then when my grandma died in 2016, Carrie & Lowell became a bitter sweet refuge for me around her death. I haven't watched The Politician, but I might start because if the show runners have good enough taste to use this song as the opening, I will give them the benefit of the doubt that the show itself is good too. Thank you, Sufjan, your music is a blessing and your vulnerability cared for my own in the trials of my life.
