"Next we have, Antoinette Topaz, singing a song she wrote..." Mr. Honey sighed. "I hate my job." He mumbled.

Toni nervously walked over to the mic, and began her song.

"I'm nearing the end of my fourth year
I feel like I've been lacking, crying to many tears
Everyone seems to say it was so great
But did I miss out, was it a huge mistake?

I can't help the fact I like to be alone
It might sound kind of sad, but that's just what I seem to know
I tend to handle things usually by myself
And I can't ever seem to try and ask for help

I'm sitting here, crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Make up is running down, feelings are all around
How did I get here? I need to know

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't

I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run

I keep collections of masks upon my wall
To try and stop myself from revealing it all
Affecting others is the last thing I would do
I keep to myself though I want to break through

I hold so many small regrets
And would-if's down inside my head
Some confidence couldn't hurt me
My demeanor is often misread

I'm sitting here, crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
How did I get here? I need to know

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't

I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sitting on the floor and all I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run

I'm sitting here crying in my prom dress
I'd be the prom queen if crying was a contest
Makeup is running down, feelings are all around
How did I get here? I need to know

I guess I maybe had a couple expectations
Thought I'd get to them, but no I didn't

I guess I thought that prom was gonna be fun
But now I'm sitting on the floor, and all I wanna do is run
All I wanna do is run"

Toni ran off stage before the crowd could even clap, and left.
