Wallowa Lake Monster 歌詞

Wallowa Lake Monster - Sufjan Stevens

As if you know the story of Wallowa Lake

 

Leviathan first hid in the deep where her children sleep

 

She kept them hidden from the plague

 

But have you heard the story of my mother's fate

 

She left us in Detroit in the rain with a pillowcase

 

Fortune for the paperweight

 

We followed her to Joseph near the Indian raid

 

She wept among the weeds hide and seek for the fallen chief

 

Spathiphyllum on his grave

 

And like the cedar waxwing she was drunk all day

 

We put her in the sheet little wreath candles on the crate

 

As the monster showed its face

 

As she waits for her children in the shade

 

Demogorgon or demigod the ghost parade

 

No oblation will bring her back to our place

 

She stayed within the deep end of Wallowa Lake

 

The undertow refrained with the flame of a feathered snake

 

Charybdis in its shallow grave

 

She gave us one last feature the fullness of her face

 

In the shade of

Hin mah too yah

Red Napoleon

 

As the demon took her place

 

As we wait for the waters to reside

 

Her remarkable stoicism and her pride

 

 

When the dragon submerged we knew she had died
