So many people worry about what other people think and say
about their clothes and hair and whatever else they may be concerned with.
But the truth is that we are all just trying to get through this thing called High School.

Beating up on eachother is just an elective for the people who want to build themselves up.

Nobody really cares about who your having sex with
wether its a boy or a girl
or how you do it.

Were all just trying to survive.
Things like us should not be in high school
Breakable, fragile hearts, under so much pressure to please

To please our parents, family, and friends.
Love still does exist, around every corner in every eye you look into.
In your escape its there, It may be on that just finished canvas or in the tattered scrapbook
or in that camera you saved up for so long.

No matter what your escape is just remember that you dont have to be pushed down,
Stand up, Be diffrent. Be you.
Its okay to be diffrent.
