To Be Me


School

Jocks on the right

Nerds on the left

I wonder which should I be

If I don't choose one, I will be nobody

I have to choose before I get hurt

The pain is never my plan in high school

Why should I choose?

I can just be me but who would likes me?

I am strong-minded but I couldn't bear a thought of being hurt because I am me

To be me, I have to be somebody else
