School Blues

[Verse] Books pile high endless days Grades low energy fades Pressure mounts can't escape Tears fall sleep eludes dreams break [Verse 2] Hallways long shadows grow Teachers talk but I don't know Locked inside can't find the key Mind's a prison set me free [Chorus] School blues drags me down In this place can't find my ground Stress and tears all around Need to breathe but can't make a sound [Verse 3] Friends pretend smiles are fake Behind closed doors hearts quake Lost in thought whispering cries Hopes and dreams slowly die [Bridge] Counting days til I'm free Want to live want to be me Outside world waits so bright But I'm stuck in endless night [Chorus] School blues drags me down In this place can't find my ground Stress and tears all around Need to breathe but can't make a sound
