Coupled with those amazing guitar sounds that Sue mentioned, creating that moody, shadowy, jangling shuffle, a song of dark beauty and power emerges that gives a vivid picture of the isolation and anguish that genius coupled with mental illness can create. 'Magdalene Laundries' is another classic Joni Mitchell song. There is a gentle lilt to the haunting melody that is infused with sadness and a profound sense of a soul wounded by a horrific and unjust experience. The first person point of view gives a powerful sense of injustice and the hypocrisy that created it. These bloodless brides of Jesus If they once glimpsed their groom Then they'd know Then they'd drop the stones concealed behind their rosaries They wilt the grass they walk upon They leach the light out of a room They'd like to drive us down the drain At the Magdalene Laundries and the heartbreaking hopelessness of that ending One day I'm going to die here too And they'll plant me in the dirt Like some lame bulb That never blooms come any spring Not any spring No, not any spring Not any spring 'Borderline' is another one that I think is a true gem. Brilliant lyrics throughout.

But I do agree with you. This song is lyrically amazing al the way through, but the lines you quoted are sublime. I also love the rhythm of the music.
