Earbuds in
I won't let the thoughts win
I will blast up my music
and try not to lose it
the halls will become silent in the beat's embrace
and I'm trying to block out the halls with their voices a race
who can make me feel the most terrible first
the need to quench their terrible thirst
the thoughts in my head are knives
and I'm trying to beat all these crazy fights
what they say is right
and it keeps me up all night
I blast my music and ignore
but what for?
its all right and I don't want to cry
the pain dripping from my eyes
if I can ignore the words and thoughts in my mind
I know I'll find
a better me
and in a few years I'll be out of high school and in reality
cliques and jocks won't matter at all
and I'll be happy I didn't fall
their words of me do not make
but the thoughts that come hate
I will blast my earbuds and try to block it out
because it is not what I am about
