Finally over,
It came so fast,
The end of the school year,
The end of our last.
Mascara drips down my face,
I cannot stop the tears,
A sad song, a comforting hand,
How I wish I could keep them here.
My friends of many years,
All going their separate ways,
I didn't want to leave school
Today of all days.
Everyone is yelling,
"Come on, guys! School's out!"
But the tears just keep on coming,
I want to whine and shout.
"It isn't fair," I scream out loud,
"Don't leave me alone here."
But indeed, summer starts,
And I burst into tears.
School's out, scream and shout,
Get happy, get high,
Say goodbye to your many friends,
And, baby, start to cry.
