Devil’s Elbow Songtext
von Tarkio

Stranded at the lighthouse
I think I saw my sister there
Oregonian lighthouse
We are conjuring a certain way
A path to reach the alcove
And me barefoot far behind


Passing by the lighthouse
An old man with a poem in his mind
And when I awoke
There was still a presence in my mind
Some dream
Some dream

Matthew at the console
We all stoned in disbelief
Clambered up the hillside
And I am cursing my naked feet
There above the ridgeline
Amidst the plants all overgrown
Cavern mouth and trailway
We all crouched to caper through


And at the end
There was a hole through which we rose
To such heights
Such heights
