Dandelions in the Breeze

stupid kids

I want to be a stupid kid

bite my tongue and cut my lip

hook up with another stupid kid

but I don't do that shit

blazing eyes and water guns

pool parties at sixteen are becoming less fun

tequila on Tuesdays make my depression fade away

but in my head its okay

because I'm studying for AP Lang 

I hope I make it to college

but I doubt it if things keep going this way

I wish I was a stupid kid

that's all I have to say

because  my parents know I'm better than this

so its hard to get away with it 

when you're known to be responsible 

and start skipping school to get drunk

and then cry on weekends when you find out your crushes are hookingup

When you see your old friend in the hallway so you get the water bottle in your locker

drowning myself in a vodka swimming pool

bathe in it till I fall asleep

but I can't claw myself out when they're chains around my feet
