To my misfortune, I'm goin' down
Though I said I won't no more, it's here I drown
Cos life is a river of constant flow
They tellin' me to sink or swim, they in their boats
Well if life is but a dream then I been woke
The dogs are barkin', the moon burns red
And I can't help from thinkin' this world wants me dead
They want a surrender, they want a soul
Alll these chains they put on me's a heavy load
If this life ain't meant for me just let me know
Long as I can remember, I been walkin' away
With everybody tellin' me I cannot stay
And when I go out, when I go outside
Too many devils at my heels I cannot hide
If this life just treat me mean why do I try
Why can't this life just offer me my cherry pie

This is undoubtedly my single favorite album of all time. It feels like such a perfect culmination of all the themes and ideas Fleet Foxes has been working with since 2008. It answers many of the questions found on both Helplessness Blues and Crack-Up, and represents an incredible maturation and growth in Robin Pecknold's perspective. Their other albums are certainly masterpieces, but this, in my opinion, is their magnum opus. I doubt it will be recognized as such in its time. isaiah_stuart
