This is such a neat song. Tori Amos said that this album, also called “The Beekeeper”, is about the story of creation from a female perspective. She explains that the Bible is written in a male perspective, but that this is a creative female perspective of how different events could have happened in the Garden of Eden. 

This song, itself, seems to be about death and compares it to the coming of winter.
