they say look on the bright side

and on the bright side we are

carrying gold stars in wicker baskets

and drinking in the sun

but the dark side is close behind

and one glance back leaves me

s p e e c h l e s s

i am shaking on the ground

my hands over my head

tuning out your words and

we are the lucky ones.
