Sufjan Stevens - Drawn To The Blood (Fingerpicking Remix) Lyrics
I'm drawn to the blood
The flight of a one-winged dove
How? How did this happen?
How? How did this happen?
The father of my last child
How? Head of a rabbit
How? Head of a rabbit
For my prayer has always been love
What did I do to deserve this?
With blood on my sleeve
Delilah, avenge my grief
How? God of Elijah
As fire to the sun
Tell me what I have done
How? Heart of a dragon
How? Heart of a dragon
For my prayer has always been love
What did I do to deserve this now?
How did this happen?

Sufjan Stevens Drawn To The Blood (Fingerpicking Remix) Comments
I just love your voice Sufjan Stevens!!!!!!!
What did I do to deserve this?
I love this version😃
I want Sufjan to bring back the orchestra for the next album. No synth electronicy songs, just acoustic/orchestra PLEASE PLEASE SUBARU. <3
Like Majesty Snowbird.
Or the Avalanche Album, Seven Swans, or Illinoise! Begging.
I guess I need more brass/string instruments. BRING BACK THE BANJO! <3
Thank you Sufjan!
Always wanted to hear songs from Carrie and Lowell without the double vocal track
Exactly how many fingers does this man have?
Blown away. I didn't think this song could be more beautiful
Wow; I love this version. BLESSINGS, BLESSINGS, THANKSGIVING BLESSINGS.
that lyric change gives this song a whole new meaning ...
"the father of my last child"
I wonder who the father of his last child is?
ummmmmm
thanks
i think it's from his mom's perspective
Brett I believe he is referring to the father of his mother’s last child, so from her perspective. But I’m not sure.
theory: this is the more fleshed-out version of this song, but the version that made the album is the "iphone demo"
this version doesn't lend itself as much to the instrument flourish at the end of the album version. the strumming album version is also more fittingly dramatic for the subject matter of the song. but he's played live versions of the song with both the strumming and the picking together.
that's a good point. this version lacks that gorgeous instrumental at the end, which to me was one of the highlights of C&L and really leads well into the other songs
i agree, the fingerpicking version is beautiful, but the strumming version fits the subject matter more. i love both versions though.
Absolutely gorgeous. Love you Sufjan!
chill hsiht
Essa versão me fez sentir tão bem...
