High School

It's high school
Could be
A mini-me
Of the rest of society
There's always
A prom queen
There'll always be
Always be sororities
And sadly
Some will be
Eternally keeping score of popularity
But just 'cause they all do
Doesn't mean we have to act
Like we're in high school

High school is like a big competition
Beauty contest, prom court is the mission
There can only be one queen, one king
Everyone voting, everyone competing
But these are the rules, the ways of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school
Someone talks behind your back, that's so high school
Thinking you have to get them back, that's also high school
I know I'll be graduating early

High school is like the state of the nation
Some people never change after graduation
Believing any light you shine makes theirs lesser
They have to prove to everyone that theirs is better
These are the rules, the ways of high school
If someone puts you down, that's so high school
Believing they're too cool for you, that's so high school
If you believe it too, that's also high school
I know I'll be graduating early

We've all got bad yearbook photos
Which we've forgot to let go
And just like acne our insecurity
Should be something we left with the JV
So here's to letting go of yearbook photos
Things we kept that hold us down
So that was yesterday, there's always tomorrow
We are tomorrow, we are tomorrow
I know I'll be graduating early
