I tought 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 [(sus4)]well
she knew him better better better
everyone wanted something from him
I did too but I shut my mouth
he just gave me a smile

Hey they found a body

not sure it was his still they’re using his name and
she gave him shelter and somewhere I know she knows

somewhere I know she knows
somethings only she knows…
