This Unfrozen Girl
I saw her in the checkout line With poster board and sharpie signs She wrote: “Dinosaurs and dresses Princesses and weapons” She blows up the text Erasing every line See how she describes her heart No fear to kiss electric sparks So wild to stop the pain and hunger Just like you 15 years younger She can see right through their eyes Making all the young boys cry No “how” or “where” or “why” will own her This unfrozen girl Then I saw her high school band… Sarah and the Fake-Bake Tans She sang “Prom is not forever, But all dogs go to heaven” My comedienne Ain’t giving up her mic See how she describes her heart No fear to kiss electric sparks So wild to stop the pain and hunger Just like you 15 years younger She can see right through their eyes Making all the young boys cry No “how” or “where” or “why” will own her This unfrozen girl No one else can fathom her kingdom No one else is here on her trip But she couldn’t care less cuz she’s the Queen at 4AM And her heart is her armor now And so the fun begins Now she’s dancing every night Shaking off the past frostbite Exclusionaries scared of new tunes Never realize what they lose So she puts up Christmas lights And rainbows on her welcome sign So inspired by her courage to be This unfrozen girl
