I'm protected from the outside world inside my little dome
There's plastic trees in my front yard beside my tiny home
And I'm living under water, so I always hold my breath
I've been shaken up so many times now I have nothing left
Snowglobe
The weather's terrible down here, it moves from bad to worse
Snow's piled high on everything, the earth quakes, it's dispersed
Then it snows for 'bout an hour, then it's piled high once again
And it's just like how it started and the cycle never ends
Snowglobe
I don't know how I got here, I don't recall anything else
When I look outside my glass dome, there's more just like it on the shelf
Snowglobes
Once I had a girl here, she kept me warm out of the cold
But she grew tired of our lives here, it's a story often told
So she left our little snowglobe to go and ride the model trains
And I'm left here all alone now where the water never drains
Snowglobe
