Spark Lyrics

Cover art for Spark lyrics by Tori Amos

"Spark is about when I miscarried, in 1996. I was three months pregnant and very excited. All of a sudden I woke up one morning and started to feel bad. The songs started coming soon after. I was really angry at God. Going into a shopping mall and seeing some woman knock the head off her child, I'm going - 'So this is fair?' I don't know where the spirit went, whether she picked another mummy, like, "OK, choose her, then! Hope you're tone deaf!"

Q: One last question. Who is the ice cream assassin? Tori: "Who do you think that is? Q: I have no idea Tori: "Well, people have been praying to him for a very long time and more wars have been fought in his name. The big guy. Think about it."
