we have all had them in our lives, those people who have a light to them, a spark. these are the people who push us a little farther, who challenge us, who make us open up parts of us that we did not even know existed. and sometimes they stay for a lifetime, sometimes they come and go in a flash; sometimes they are friends, lovers, strangers we share a seat on the train with, or a child who asks a question that has us reeling and thinking for days after. they are part of our story, the pages that are loaded with the stuff of whispers and i will always remembers.
i said i was willing
she said she knew what my books did not
i thought she knew what's up
past the mission
behind the prison tower
past the mission
i once knew a hot girl
past the mission
they're closing every hour
past the mission
i smell the roses
she said they all think they know him
well she knew him better
everyone wanted something from him
i did too but i shut my mouth
he just gave me a smile
past the mission
behind the prison tower
past the mission
i once knew a hot girl
past the mission
they're closing every hour
past the mission
i smell the roses
past the mission
and i smell the roses
hey they found a body
not sure it was his but they're using his name
and she gave him shelter
and somewhere i know she knows
somethings only she knows
past the mission
behind the prison tower
past the mission
i once knew a hot girl
past the mission
they're closing every hour
past the mission
i smell the roses
past the mission
behind the prison tower
past the mission
i once knew a hot girl
past the mission
they're closing every hour
past the mission
i smell the roses
past the mission
and i smell the roses
past the mission
and i smell the roses
past the mission ~ tori amos
