Sufjan Stevens
"Presidents & Magistrates"


A government has gone this far.
A covenant prepared to part.
Peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me.
Peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me.

If I'm alone in saying "yes."
I'll change my views and try my best.
Peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me.
Peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me,
peace to me.

Take it only if you boldly
cannot take it
(jumps and lonely).
Presidents and magistrates
spend on golf
and spring vacation.
(Peace to me!
