The Upper Peninsula - Sufjan Stevens

I live in America

With a pair of Payless shoes

The upper peninsula

And the television news

And I’ve seen my wife

At the K-Mart

In strange ideas

We live apart

I live in a trailer home

With a snow mobile, my car

The window is broken out

And the interstate is far

I drove all night

To find my child

In strange ideas

He’s been reviled

In strange ideas

In stranger times

I’ve no idea

What’s right sometimes

I lost my mind

I lost my life

I lost my job

I lost my wife
