Peace of Mind
Most of the class is gone
Swimming with the year 7s
The teachers I hate are gone too
So I get peace of mind
My classmates are cruel
I'm a pawn on their chess set
But they're gone...
So I get peace of mind
The PE teacher is a jerk
The feud we have impairs me from my work
But I'm out of his reach
So I get peace of mind
Bring out the teachers
Bring in the subs
They don't give us work
So I get peace of mind
The classmates love to swim
So a few of us still stand
Peace + Quiet =
Peace of mind
But there is something still on my mind
A girl that I want to be mine
But she's not here
I don't trust her with my peers
But based on what they say
She's only trying to play
I'm the one she desires
I assume she's not a liar
I miss her
I worry for her
But somehow
I still get
Peace of mind
