Say Anything - High School Low Lyrics
If I'm just a slave to my high school daysThen when does a boy become a manThey say at 16 I will get tough and meanCollege prep rally pep peachy keenAnd ill meet a gal and take her to the promAnd maybe we'll make out by the old viewpointBut, there are no gals, no pep rallies, good palsStay away from these high schoolMy teacher says that I'm brilliantMy mother says I'm a starMy girlfriend just avoids meBut I still pay for the dinner and the movieMy room is filled with abandonMy homework is yet left undoneI look at pictures of myself as a small childAll filled with hope and so alive butOh, these high school daysTake that away, take me away, take me awayStress and hard duress replace the hope I had everydayAll these high school daysTake that away, take myself awayIf only I could skip forward or backThe best years of my life oh my god I hope not lets goI hope not lets goMy friends are overachieversMy love is burning my downMy left nut has this crazy itch during homeroomoh god that girl just saw me scratch myall control is now spiralingmy grades look pretty damn lowI want to motivate myself, but how the hell am I supposed to workI do not love these high school daysTake that away, take me away, take me awayStress and hard duress replace the hope I had everydayAll these high school daysTake that away, I take myself awayIf only I could skip forward or backThe best years of my life oh my god I hope not lets goI hope not lets goSo listen young boys to the words that I speakHeed then and hold them to stayNever let go of the cowboy insideOr you'll die in your high school days
