First Bell 01:03

Math 03:47
It still rings inside my head All of those words that you said You said I was your everything And the fact that you found another guy still stings You lost nothing when you Subtracted me, you know it’s true I’m used to being left behind But you know that I’ll always be fine It doesn’t add up at all And you know that I’ll fall All I did when I was in school Was think about how it was so cruel That I never got the happy ending And everyone was so fucking condescending I was happiest when I was around you You were the only one that I could talk to But if I was the only one in your eyes Then why did you leave me and take another guy It’s never enough I’m never enough What’s wrong with me Tell me, what’s wrong with me It doesn’t add up at all And you know that I’ll fall It never adds up at all And you know that I’ll fall It never adds up at all Okay There’s nothing else to say I found out love isn’t worth it the hard way It’s been three fucking years and I’m still struggling The fact that you’re still in my head is quite troubling I’ll take the blame for that one though I guess I just move on really damn slow This is the last song I write about you I hope life treats you well along with your new man

Science 03:19
I don’t feel complete, I could use a treat I feel way too much, I can feel everything I touch So let’s all get high, and make sure the high never dies I don’t mind giving everything to keep myself from suffering If this is what keeps me here, then let’s do it the whole school year It makes the chemicals in my brain go away That’s science for you, that’s all there is to say I already know I’m the lowlife, but keep pushing in the knife I’ll never get anywhere, because I’m sucking on a square I need to get new friends, because these guys need a cleanse I don’t mind giving everything to keep myself from suffering If this is what keeps me here, then let’s do it the whole school year It makes the chemicals in my brain go away That’s science for you, that’s all there is to say That’s science for you That’s science for you It's been nice having you guys as my friends But uh, I can't be around that stuff anymore Sorry

PE 04:29
Every day I see that same guy In my mirror, I hope he dies He’s so ugly and dragging him around Is the biggest pain, such a clown I don’t compare to the other kids, I never try I’m so useless I’m unfit and ugly, probably couldn’t even play chess I never know what to do when the ball comes near me I just want to be accepted by you guys so badly Looking in my mirror, I realize My body’s looking a larger size I wish I could cut it off Just cut cut it off Can you still love me? Even though I’m ugly? I don’t compare to the other kids, I never try I’m so useless I’m unfit and ugly, probably couldn’t even play chess I never know what to do when the ball comes near me I just want to be accepted by you guys so badly Can you still love me? Even though I’m ugly and always fuck everything up Can you still love me? Even though I’m ugly? I don’t compare to the other kids, I never try I’m so useless I’m unfit and ugly, probably couldn’t even play chess I never know what to do when the ball comes near me I just want to be accepted by you guys so badly I will never escape from this wretched body I just want to feel free

When I see your face, I can’t find the words to say And nothing can beat that nostalgic feeling, when I wake up from a dream that you’re starring in You creep your way into my mind, every single day And nothing can beat that nostalgic feeling, when I wake up from a dream that you’re starring in I could write an essay about you, but nothing could put together what I have to say It’ll never be enough, it’ll never go away All this old stuff still gets in my way Live your own life, find someone new You’ll still be in my heart through everything I do I hope you like this poem I wrote just for you So maybe you can finally see my point of view I still love you I still love you I feel my heart drop, every time I see your ghost laying in my bed Nothing beats that nostalgic feeling, when I wake up from a dream that you’re starring in I could write and essay about you, but nothing could put together what I have to say You’re my favorite thing to talk about, because I still love you

History 04:58
I sit in my room and do nothing The only thing I can do is sit here and sing Do I waste the air I breathe in every single day I swear I waste the time I have in every single way Will I leave a mark? Will you remember me? Or did I live my life way too care-free? I just want to make you happy, that’s what I thought my purpose was Or is time just dwindling down, it feels like that’s all it does I’m not gonna shoot you with stupid metaphors Because I want you to know what I sing for There is no meaning to any of this But that’s honestly the part that fills me with bliss You might not get your little happy ending Because there’s nobody up there tending To you but that’s okay because you can do it yourself Just don’t leave your passion on the shelf Don’t worry about your history Or the mark that you gotta leave behind Focus on the glory of life It’s all just one twisted grind I sit in my room and do what I love But money is what I could use a lot more of I don’t care any more I’m not trying to score It’s all I ask for, it’s all I ask for I don’t want the rest of my life to be a gray unhappy snore Here we go again let’s do it like the last You can’t spend your time all hung up on the past Don’t worry about all the wasted time I think everyone is guilty of that crime Don’t worry about all the mistakes either All of those are well expired Just learn from them and move on Even if the pain isn’t immediately gone I say these words to maybe help you It’s all I’m here for and it’s all I’d wanna do You don’t have to take any of my advice I wasted my time, I paid the price

Every morning I wake up and rub my eyes Stare at the ceiling for a bit and wonder when I’ll die Live the same day I did before, over and over When I wish that life would bring me just a little bit more I’ll pick up my brush and paint you the most beautiful thing All those feelings and adventures that life could one day bring The art of living is that it’s an empty canvas That you can paint yourself in any way, trust me When you told me what you’re going through I remembered, I knew what you were feeling Sometimes the hardest thing to do is make it through the day But I want you to know that those feeling always go away When you feel like your life is spent getting in everyone’s way And the world outside is water-colored with paint that’s only gray I hope you know it’ll be okay I hope you know it’ll be okay It’ll be okay It’ll be okay I looked into your eyes and saw nothing Saw nothing When I looked into your eyes I saw nothing I’ll pick up my brush and paint you the most beautiful thing All those feelings and adventures that life could one day bring The art of living is that it’s an empty canvas That you can paint yourself in any way, trust me I know you can do this You deserve to feel happy for once You’ll get there You’ll get there

Homeroom 03:32
It’s almost time to leave this hell Almost time for the last bell Of the year but I’m gonna miss it Even if some of parts were shit I’ll never get this time back It’ll stick with me until everything goes black I’ll never see some of you again Just know that you sometimes made me grin Or is this just where things begin? Time goes so fast now I guess this is the song where I look at the crowd and bow I really didn’t learn anything in school But the memories I made were still cool Highschool crushes, cheating on homework Messing with teachers and being a jerk Will they remember my name and talk about me I don’t care anymore Because I’m finally free Time goes so fast now I guess this is the song where I look at the crowd and bow This is just the beginning I don’t have to worry yet about my hair thinning This is just the beginning I made it out alive, I’d call that winning This is just the beginning This is just the beginning
