I overheard some news today
While on a loop of the park
Negotiations of the bitter kind
Still together but yet miles apart
At the crossroads in anorak
Protected from an elementary attack
In her heart were seeds of hope
Scattered by a child in a lemon drop coat
Sunshine bright on me coz
I need the light
If tomorrow should start without me
I'll be the light
Hanging overhead was a dark grey sky
No glimmers of hope to catch her eye
Pills were prescribed but helped her none
Childcare provided by an elderly mum
In her pocket was a silver knife
A handwritten note about her life
Instructions on how to cleanse her soul
And how to use the knife if she fails her goal
Sunshine bright on me coz
I need the light
If tomorrow should start without me
I'll be the light
Sunshine bright on me coz
I need the light
If tomorrow should start without me
I'll be the light
