Snow Fort
by Eight Legged Oedipus
(C) 2005 Pure Greed Records
After school got a sugar high
We took a vow that we were willing to die
This is war, this is war, this is horrible war
We took the high ground armed ourselves
With a stockpiled rock-guiled arsenal shelf
This is war, this is war, this horrible war
We could hear the enemy approach
Jason hit one in the throat
Someone's bleeding, someone's bleeding, oh yeah
Grandma's screaming, Grandma's screaming, "get down from there"
Then when aunty interrupted the fray
I socked her one on the side of her face
This is war, this is war, this is horrible war
Oh aunty, don't you cry
I'm sure your eye is fine
The doctors will...
See you soon
The waiting room
Is full of gloom and fallen comrades
Bandaged up, bundled up in puddles of blood
The snow fort beckons, cuz it needs defending
Don't tell me I gotta learn my lesson
We've got to hold our position
Now I'm wishing for the champagne glisten of
A white laced lawn but the fort is gone at dawn
And the unused ammunition's all frozen on
Oh Grandma, don't you swear
At least she's still got hair
And Aunty's alive!

Snow Fort
by Impudence
It's getting dark now
I hear Mother calling
For now, though, I prefer this comfort
I'll sit here in the snow fort we built
And we'll play games
And we'll have wars
And we'll be safe
In this snow fort of ours
The long afternoons we spent
I hear Mother calling me.
And all day we threw snowballs
and took shelter in our forts
And battles won and battles lost
Never meant as much as those days spent together
And we played games
And we had wars
And we were safe
In that snow fort of ours

"Snow Fort" by x-tokyo-river-god
I have learned the word
The one that will kill this place
With one lash of my tongue
I can bring the decay
One simple word can be
The most vile act of violence
A trembling of my voice
Can turn it all to silence
Don't tempt me
If you dare to break my heart
I'll say the one word
And tear the world apart
Not even God can stop this
Only you can stem the tide
Your love can hush my sorrow
Instead you leave it all to die
I will block out the sun
I will bring the cold
Turn this forsaken world
Into forts of snow
I will bury you
I have learned the word
The one that will kill this place
With one lash of my tongue
I can bring the decay
One simple word can be
The most vile act of violence
A trembling of my voice
Can turn it all to silence
Don't tempt me
If you dare to break my heart
I'll say the one word
And tear the world apart
Not even God can stop this
Only you can stem the tide
Your love can hush my sorrow
Instead you leave it all to die
I will block out the sun
I will bring the cold
Turn this forsaken world
Into forts of snow
I will bury you
