    High School

    Closed in from the world outside
    I look everywhere but all I find
    Is longer hallways, more doors
    Leading to my death, my own defeat
    I'm trapped
    I can't get out
    I'm stuck here forever
    I don't know where I'm at
    The room's getting taller
    But I'm being boxed in
    And I'm growing smaller
    I'm bursting within
    This feeling's so terrible
    I can't break loose
    I feel at the edge
    Dangling from a noose
    Then, as soon as I'd felt it
    The feeling goes away
    The bell sounds at the end of the day
    "Let's go home!"
    I hear all around me
    The doors are opened
    I can go free!
    The bell's ring
    Makes my heart sing
    I'm no longer dying
    I breath in the fresh air
    Of the outside world
    The air inside was suffocating me more and more
    I was free to live--
    Until tomorrow, when it begins again.
