Oh Dear Goodness

School... some think it's cool,                                                                                                                                                                  well, it's not.                                                                                                                                                                      It's STRESSFUL!                                                                                                                                                              Teacher's force of homework causes so much grief,                                                                                                           it's like it's their belief.                                                                                                                                                         Oh, but what a relief when all is done Friday night.                                                                                                              It's the weekend right?                                                                                                                                                          Oh no, expectations are set so high,                                                                                                                           parents expect you to reach beyond the sky!                                                                                                                Having three greats before you...                                                                                                                                   make life feel like poo.                                                                                                                                                       No breaks from school or work week after week...                                                                                                                  with so much pressure,                                                                                                                                                          You just might leak!                                                                                                                                                               It is inferred being a senior is easy.                                                                                                                                      HA! It isn't!                                                                                                                                                                      Too much to do in so little time,                                                                                                                                         to be successful in college you have to save every dime.                                                                                                      So much homework and money saving...                                                                                                                          You feel as though your life is caving                                                                                                                               You shouldn't be a drama queen...                                                                                                                                    But hey, you are only a teen!                                                                                                                                           Going to work is hard enough,                                                                                                                                    but being a lifeguard is really tough.                                                                                                                                      You need time to catch your breath,                                                                                                                                       but that might send you to your death.                                                                                                                               With such pressure from teachers and parents,                                                                                                                   they make you feel like you should live in tents.                                                                                                                      All you ask is for "belief in me,"                                                                                                                                             and let you be.                                                                                                                                                                       you don't mind expectations...                                                                                                                                               It's when they become so high that you might need medication.                                                                                       You know education is important,                                                                                                                                         and you might be as small as an ant.                                                                                                                                    But so much pressure can lead to...                                                                                                                                   you turning BLUE!                                                                                                                                                             (long areas of spaces means next line; enter button wouldn't work on the sight).                                                                                                                                                    I don't know   ... .
