Started From the Bottom, Now We're Here
Location
We started from the bottom
In elementary school
We believed in becoming
Firefighters and astronauts
We still played outside
And cried at bedtime
We believed those big kids
Were the coolest in the world
The playground was the most
Popular place you could be
In middle school
We believed that we
Should be treated like adults
Fun times with friends
Were all that seemed important
We believed we were too old
To Trick-or-Treat
Or have Mom go with us everywhere
Those big kids were still so awesome
We would be just like them someday
Finally, we made it to freshman year
We believed in serious relationships
And making the most of our lives
The teachers were the enemy
And the seniors could do no wrong
We believed high school would
Never come to an end
And that graduation was light years away
We were dying for time to pass more quickly
Now, as seniors
We believe that we are still children
And that all of this is not really happening
Kindergarten and middle school
Dont seem like such a bad place to be
We believe in ourselves
And where we are going
The memories are all
We can take with us
Now we're here.
