Somehow, it isn't twee.
What could I have said to raise you from the dead? Oh could I be the sky on the Fourth of July?
Sufjan Stevens speaks universal truths in Fourth of July, and the song's aching, looping refrain is stuck in my head.

"The hospital asked should the body be cast
Before I say goodbye, my star in the sky
Such a funny thought to wrap you up in cloth
Do you find it all right, my dragonfly?"
