I smiled when the song ended. "Hey So what were doing out last night?" Rodrick asked as I looked away and avoided his eyes. His dark eyes that could just stop my thoughts and heart. "My friends that came here today. We all experienced something together last year. Have you heard of the shooting that happened at Schuyler High?" I asked finally looking at him as he kept his eyes on the road while nodding. "yeah the two shooters shot themselves after killing half the school." he says as I sigh. "Not even. One hundred and fifty students killed, two hundred injured along with staff." I pointed out as he looks at me when he hits a red light. "That many?" He widen his eyes. "yeah."
"What happened to make these guys act like that?" He asked as I shrugged. "Bullying, I don't know. Duncan was the brains of the whole operation, then his friend just went along with him. I knew them both. They were someone I cared for." I say sadly as I look down. I then felt the motion of moving as I hear a familiar song come on as I turned the volume up a bit.

"I don't like my mind right now
Stacking up problems that are so unnecessary
Wish that I could slow things down
I wanna let go but there's comfort in the panic
And I drive myself crazy
Thinking everything's about me
Yeah I drive myself crazy
'Cause I can't escape the gravity
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
Holding on
To so much more than I can carry
I keep dragging around what's bringing me down
If I just let go, I'd be set free
Holding on
Why is everything so heavy?" I entered as I hear Rodrick sing the first verse a bit.
"You say that I'm paranoid
But I'm pretty sure the world is out to get me
It's not like I make the choice
To let my mind stay so fucking messy
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
I know I'm not the center of the universe
But you keep spinning round me just the same
I'm holding on
Why is everything so heavy?
