Some kids in school do not do their best, they could, and everyone expects them too. Yet they seem to carry more than the usual rebellion, and drop out, then regret it years later.
*Thought I was better* *than I how it turned out* *somehow the fight in me* *went and hid* *I never tried* *looked to the windows* *let that exam drift by* *yet years later* *I wish I had tried.* *I knew I could* *but was all screwed up* *lets not make excuses* *I was stupid loused it* *blew that moment* *and thats how it went* *now I look back with regret.*
