Sufjan Stevens — Pickerel Lake

[Verse 1] I wasn't willing To fight on the floor Throwing the chairs through the door I wasn't willing To fight on the floor Something to say to the poor [Chorus] The storms in July Took off the trees Took off the place to be The animals died Once in a while Once in a while [Verse 2] I wasn't willing To make up the bed Folding the sheets to your half I wasn't willing To say it again Waiting for things to begin [Chorus] The storms in July Took off the trees Took off the place to be The animals died Once in a while Once in a while
