lyrics

Whoever told you life was fair
Never spent much time sitting in the electric chair
Those bruises you keep hidden
'neathe your cotton dress
Won't fade away when you close your eyes to rest

You bought the story sold to you
The curtain came down long
before the act was through
No mother's milk could heal the wounds you have inside
This crazy world has let you down and left you dry

Sarah
the lion sleeps in the sun
and bows her head for no one
but the wind

Is there a place you'd like to go
an Alcatraz that you could have to call your own
Your jewelry box is filled with rubies made of blood
You traded in yourself for a taste of love

Sarah
the lion sleeps in the sun
and bows her for no one
but the wind
but the wind

And when the days turn into years
Will you have more than just
the memory
of your fears
to hold
when you're old

Sarah
Sarah
Sarah
whoever told you life was fair
