Life

i hear him yell i hear him scream
the teachers eyes burn right through me
i burst in flames i kick and scream
oh my god its just a dream

i wake up and hit my head 
the teachers face is turning red
i look at becca insted 
i know shes laughing in her head

i can not hear i can not see 
but i know its almost three
two more days
two more years
then i will be out of here
