I take a deep breath before stepping onto the stage. Today is the day I am performing the song I wrote - which I decided to call 'Better Than Revenge'. Applause erupts around me as I walk up to the microphone with shaking hands. I can do this. Let Millie and Pete suffer through this, they both deserve this and more. I open my mouth to begin singing.

"Thank you everyone for giving me this opportunity to perform. I call this song 'Better Than Revenge' and it's about teaching someone that they betrayed to wrong person. Hope you guys enjoy!

She should keep in mind stealing people's toys in the playground won't get her any friends

She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind that there is nothing I do better than revenge...

She looks at life like it's a party and she's on the list

She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over it

I think here ever-present frown is a little troubling

She thinks I'm psycho since I like to rhyme her name with things

But sophistication isn't what you wear or who you know

Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go

They didn't teach you that at prep school so it's up to me

But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity

She's not a saint, she's not what you think

She's an actress, whoa oh

He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches, whoa oh

She should keep in mind stealing people's toys in the playground won't get her any friends

She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind that there is nothing I do better than revenge...

I'm just another thing to roll your eyes at honey

You might have him but haven't you heard?

I'm just another thing to roll your eyes at honey

You might have him but I'll always get the last word

Oh woah oh" Once I finish singing, the crowd starts whistling, cheering and clapping simultaneously. I notice Pete and Millie glaring daggers at me, but I don't care. Millie should keep in mind even if she has him, I will always have the last word.
