"Kill" lyrics - SUFJAN STEVENS

SUFJAN STEVENS
"Kill"

He took the stable
Bred me to be a mare
Made the bretheren able
Gave me a room

I never asked him
I never meant to stay
He dressed the table
Wore a dress to be my mare

[Pre-Chorus:]
There's no permanence
When you never leave the stall
He ran to other wars
Won't write me at all

[Chorus 1:]
I want to kill him
I want to cut his brain
And when it's over
I know I'll feel okay

He was a champion
We were riding side by side
Into the frontier
He left me without a ride

Where did the hour go
When the champions intercede?
He stole the cargo
Took every chance to leave

[Pre-Chorus:]
There's no permanence
When you never leave the stall
He ran to other wars
Won't write me at all

[Chorus 1:]
I want to kill him
I want to cut his brain
And when it's over
I know I'll feel okay

[Chorus 2:]
I want to kill him
I want to cut his face
And when it's over
I know I'll feel okay

[Outro:]
I want
I want
I want
I want
