I used to get annoyed with her sometimes, because she was that stubborn sort,
The ones who never really know when to let go or when to cooperate, but
She was also one of those who always was looking for justice, no matter what,
And as if my world isn't upside down already, now this case has to lead
To a place the unit swore up and down we'd never go again, and
Liv and I are arresting people even though we shouldn't, because to not do it would
Blow the cover she had, and Casey's going to have our heads for it, I know it.
Sure enough, she does.
But this is only after the Feds drop by the office to ask exactly what Liv and I
Think we're doing, because hey, this is their show and they don't exactly appreciate
Two lowly detectives (according to them) coming by and ruining everything.
So then Cragen knows what Liv and I have known for the past year, and then
The next thing we know, she's back, to face the ones who took her down.
But they never took her down as it was.
And she's still as stubborn as ever.
None of us are surprised.
She came back because without her, we couldn't do this, and she knows it,
And now we've got two prosecutors sitting around, and I didn't know Casey knew her,
Apparently neither did anyone else, but they get along, which is good, because
The last thing we need is for them to get into some kind of argument,
Over who's the better lawyer, because they're both decent.
They think they rule the city, and that's their problem.
If they'd learn that they don't, they'd be better off, but apparently,
Anyone who dares annoy them risks having to disappear,
Temporarily, or permanently, and I know that I thought my life was upside down, but…
Hers seems to be a lot more so than mine, and
She's been dealing with it for a lot longer.
Makes me wonder if I'll be able to handle this life of mine after all.
And when it's over and we've got our convictions, we wait,
In Casey's office, for her to come, and the shadows in the windows
Make us think it's her, but it's not.
It's the Feds, and she's gone again,
To wherever it is that they've decided to send her, because
The threat's not gone until the leader's taken out, and we know it.
But we still miss her all the same.
