Escape

Wake up exaushted, check Twitter, check Facebook, go to school.

Wish you weren't at school, walk through the hallways alone, try to smile at passing "friends"

Wish you had the new iphone, get the new iphone, wish you had the new iphone, get the new iphone, can you ever keep up?

Worry about your weight, Does anyone even notice? Worry about what she said that he said, Does it even really matter? Worry about where your going to college, oh wait that does really matter.

Or does it? If you worry about your grades, are you even learning anything?

In a society obsessed with keeping up, the standards are just as real as your imagination. Meanwhile all you do is procrastinate, get drunk, get high, break laws, obey rules, crave sleep, crave more. Escape.
