Lyrics The Mistress Witch From McClure (Or, the Mind That Knows Itself) - Sufjan Stevens
And
the
winter
moves
about
Illinois
When
my
sister
picks
a
fight
With
the
Alexander
boy
And
my
father
locks
the
car
by
the
store
Still
we
figure
out
the
keys
And
follow
him
once
more
Oh
my
God,
we
see
it
on
the
floor
The
woman
on
the
bed
The
ankle
brace
she
wore
Stones
and
sled
It
could
have
been
some
other
The
mind
that
knows
itself
Has
a
mind
to
serve
the
other
But
we
run
back,
scratching
at
the
door
Scratching
at
the
door
If
I′m
hiding
in
the
sleeves
of
my
coat
When
my
father
runs
undressed
He's
pointing
at
my
throat
And
my
brother
has
fit
in
the
snow
And
the
traffic
stops
for
miles
We
take
him
by
the
elbow
Oh
my
God,
the
shuffling
and
the
floor
A
mind
that
knows
itself
Is
a
mind
that
knows
much
more
So
we
run
back,
scrambling
for
cover
The
mind
that
knows
itself
Has
a
mind
to
kill
the
other
(Oh
my
God,
no
one
came
to
our
side
To
carry
us
away
from
danger)
Oh
my
God
He
left
us
now
for
dead
He
left
us
now
for
dead
