Futile Devices (Shigeto Remix)

Sufjan Stevens

It's been a long, long time
Since I've memorized your face
It's been four hours now
Since I've wandered through your place
And when I sleep on your couch
I feel very safe
And when you bring the blankets
I cover up my faceI do
Love you
I do
Love youAnd when you play guitar
I listen to the strings buzz
The metal vibrates underneath your fingers
And when you crochet
I feel mesmerized and proudAnd I would say I love you
But saying it out loud is hard
So I won't say it at all
And I won't stay very longBut you are life I needed all along
I think of you as my brother
Although that sounds dumbAnd words are futile devices
