tori amos
In the Lush Virginia hills
they kept her as long as they could
Cause they knew when the white brother found
white shell Beads wrapped around her
skin - a life giving river -
Her body open as will his hand
And with a "goodbye" there she goes
she may Betray
All that she loves
and even wait for their Savior to come
And in some things,
maybe he'll be right
But as always
The thing that he Loves he will change from her
sunwise to clockwise
to soul trading still she'll lay down her Body
covering him all the same
so Hundreds of years go by
She's a girl out working her Trade
and she loses a little each day
to ghetto pimps and presidents
who try and arouse her turquoise serpents
She can't recall what they represent
and when you ask, she won't know
she will Betray
All that she loves
and even wait for their Savior to come
And in some things,
maybe he'll be right
But as always The thing that he Loves he will change from her
sunwise to clockwise
to soul trading still she'll lay down her Body
covering him all the same
