Corridor Reverie

In the halls, draggin' feet, through the day, life's repeat Homework piles, so does dread, in the depths of my bed Dull-eyed stare, locker's clang, all these bells, their harsh pang Hear the drone, in my head, high school blues, painted red With my friends, can't escape, same old jokes, classes scrape Teacher's talk, fades to grey, in my thoughts, far away Textbooks weigh, down my soul, heavy hearts, take their toll Counting days, to be free, trapped in youth's reverie Lunchroom laughs, masks we wear, finding solace in despair Graffiti walls, empty gaze, corridor's endless maze [Chorus] Feeling numb, in this teenage jail A story told, where the brave hearts fail
