about

This song was written about, and for, a person who tricked me into believing she was a good witch...
This song is about forgiveness, which can be a very long process...

lyrics

She drove off the road just changing the station
she walked away to leave the damage for another day
the only trouble now is seeping through her pores
there must be more to life than this
there must be a better way

and through the windows of the bus
history stares right back at us
nothing left now to do but pray
to the Goddess of Forgiveness
to the witches who can heal us
to the memory of how close you came that day...

She looks inside to find a little boy
who stole her bike and rides it right past her door
he is her truth
and he is her joy
he knows her secrets but he'll never tell
not this little boy

and through the windows of the bus
he is staring right back at us
nothing left now to do but pray
to The Goddess Of Forgiveness
to the witches who can heal us
to the memory of how close you came that day...

So she came home today to rearrange
the stuff that make her crazy,
stuff that makes her strange
she'll sort it out and then she'll write it down
her poetry is her therapy
to bring her back around

and through the window of the bus
history is staring right back at us
nothing left now to do but pray
to The Goddess Of Forgiveness
to the witches who can heal us
to the memory of those lost along the way...
