Those four brick walls

The days i don't forget,
though i may try so.
Run around in my head,
they don't want to let go.

It all started out good,
but far from great.
Small fish in a big pond,
a completely new slate.

Loads of opportunity,
an entire new start.
Say good bye to the old,
though it was sad to part.

I didn't want to go,
but at the same time i did.
I knew that progression,
would pop open the lid.

So into the hall,
i entered with glee.
But then those four brick walls,
i would never be free.

Knowledge was shared,
that much is true.
But what happened to progression,
and starting a new.

People are cruel,
the make you feel down.
But they didn't stop there,
no these mob wore the crown.

They teased and they taunted,
they couldn't care less.
Day in and day out,
I became one big mess.

Now one day in class,
they got with the teacher.
They all had a go,
and that tipped the meter.

I walked out right there,
that was the end of the game.
Not that it mattered,
they didn't even know my name.

I cried and cried,
i felt so sad.
To be the school joke,
it made me feel bad.

Yes High School was good,
but far from great.
I ran from my dreams,
i shattered my slate.
