Light Hearted Years

I'm watching you, an extraordinary view
Of an undercover blue girl breathing
In, blowing out, any inessential mouthful
Of poison talk. About-face: the future

I have seen your darkness
I have seen your darkness
Turning into light-hearted years

When Sarah said that she wanted to be dead
I anticipated red-handed ruin
But, over time, she began a steady climb
And went back to being mine as I knew her

Chorus

Citizens beware
Devil may not care
If you're bright, accomplished and going somewhere

Woman at play: indespensible and famous
For demonstrating ways to be happy
Comfortable skin: all the more for having been
Up in armor, looking inward for answers

Chorus
