I don't want to go to school,
Mom, please don't make me.
Everyone is cruel there,
And I think some people hate me.
You say schools suppose to be fun, right?
Well, maybe it's changed since you've gone.
Yes, I have friends, but they're like me,
Scared to speak up because they are pawns.
Some of the kids there a weird too,
And I don't mean nerdy in any way.
It's more like...odd and scary...
No...I really don't know what to say.
Its 6:30 yes I know it,
And I’m asking you one last time,
Please don't make me go to school,
I'm scared of all the crimes.
I guess you're making me go,
That's fine, shows how much you care,
Just remember what I asked you,
'Cause you'll still be missing me in a year.

Author notes
Umm...so this was made for a contest about Columbine...i don't think it's all that great and it isn't real about Columbine persay, more just of school crimes and how people feel at school. If you want to listen to a sad song about Columbine you can look up on youtube Rude Awakening by Thousand Foot Krutch.. it's an amazing song but it was banned from their album, don't ask me why.
