Ages of Cages: Rain to Snow

Rain to Snow

I knew a girl from Greenland

With a heart like a furnace

And she painted my sails with canvas killer whales

To protect me from the West justice

I kissed her on the forehead

I didn't want to let go

But then she sipped the bleeding tears from my eyes

And turned my rain to snow

She turned my rain to snow

I met a man in Romania

Who spoke with a helium voice

And he curses his friends who have all made amends

After pushing him to the wrong choice

Now he sits up their like a golem

Atop a great castle of cards

Watching all of the regal women laugh

Picking flowers in the courtyard

Picking flowers in the yard

And I lost a girl in Nevada

Where they milked all of her trust

Now she pays for her lust with these children of dust

Sleeping in a cheap sarcophagus

In her moth-eaten wedding gown

People sigh at her pretending to care

But nobody really looks at her

All they do is stare

Oh, all they do is stare
