Текст песни Sufjan Stevens - The Only Thing

The Only Thing
Sufjan Stevens
[[[The chords might be in the wrong place, and may even be the wrong chords. 
The placement is an issue with copy/paste. I tried to fix it, but I may have got it wrong since 
I'm going off memory. The chords being wrong is an issue with this being my first attempt 
at figuring out a song there weren't chords for.]]]

I couldn't find my capo, so this is the no capo version. Someone else can figure out the 
capo version.

The only thing that's keeping me from driving this car
Half-light Jackknife into the canyon at night
Signs and Wonders: Perseus aligned with the skull
Slain Medusa: Pegasus alight from us all

Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found
In a veil of great surprises, I wonder did you love me at all

The only thing that's keeping me from cutting my arm
Cross-hatch warm bath Holiday Inn after dark
Signs and Wonders: water stain writing the wall
Daniel's message: blood of the moon on us all

Do I care if I despise this? Nothing else matters, I know.
In a veil of great disguises, how do I live with your ghost?

Should I tear my eyes out now?
Everything I see returns to you somehow.
Should I tear my heart out now?
Everything I feel returns to you somehow. mmmm
I want to save you from your sorrow.

The only reason why I continue at all
Faith in reason, I wasted my life playing dumb.
Signs and Wonders: Sea Lion caves in the dark.
Blind faith, God's grace, nothing else left to impart.

Do I care if I survive this? Bury the dead where they're found.
In a veil of great surprises, hold onto my head til I drown.

Should I tear my eyes out now before I see too much?
Should I tear my arms off now, I want to feel your touch.

Should I tear my eyes out now?
Everything I see returns to you somehow.
Should I tear my heart out now?
Everything I feel returns to you somehow.
