I'm thinking Sufjan's illness is mental illness.
We know Sufjan hears voices (Seven Swans), has insomnia, fights depression, and has a mom who was schizophrenic.
Everywhere you look, everywhere you turn, illness is watching, waiting its turn.
...
Endless lights prey upon the lonely, prey upon the lonely Weightless lights, oh, I would rather be, but I would rather be fine
I want to be well, I want to be well, I want to be well, I want to be well.
Apparitions gone awry They surround me, all sides
And now he's obsessed with a schizophrenic artist who paints his visions?
