We met when we were stupid young
Three months before they took her tongue
And four before I sold my lungs
To an American businessman's son
And long before I thought I was done
But then thoughts like this, they weigh a ton
And I needed to shed weight so I could run
From her muteness which was less than fun
We promised to be best of friends
For good or worse, well it depends
On the type of crook I'd represent
And for each crime she'd reprehend me
So intensely that I would just defend
But I'd come off way more cruel
Than I did at first intend
And she'd say hell's where I could send myself
With her wealth of hatred for men
But she is the one I love
But she might disagree
She is the one I want
The one who works for me
But I don't recall her name anymore
My long lost snow body
He admired how she stood her ground
This bright eyed little minx he'd found
In the library writing book quotes down
While his suit of armor tumbled round him
A flowered shirt and chiseled crown
And all the seeds that he had found
In his secluded little cabin beneath the ground
Where all thoughts and fears seemed so profound
He labored on his mobile phone
Her number wrought a deadly tone
Silent sex and lonesome groans
But the distance fought to have him grown
And older men accept they're home
And passive thoughts once overblown
And stretch marks are just how growth is shown
And he tried his best to reach for the unknown
But she is the one he loves
But she might disagree
She is the one he wants
The one he wants to see
But he can't recall her name anymore
His long lost snow body
I saw her choke on Adam's toe
She hates the life but loves the show
Well I'm just glad it's her I know
While they rack up six fat lines of blow
And cut us loose and let us go
An accordion and piano
That ride a wave this guitar can hardly know
It's at times like this it all seems so slow
She told me how Bukowski lies
And how she wished John Keats would die
While my friends and lovers whistled bye
Like that book that Cicero had scribed
But it weren't until I saw her eyes
That circus walk, that acid sky
That I can say it's all just worth a try
Cause another might just get you by
And she is the one I love
But she might disagree
She is the one I want
The one who works for me
She is the one I love
The one who works for me
She is the one I want
The one who'll disagree
But I just don't wanna have anymore
Long lost snow body
