My life is a poem by Edgar Allan Poe
An epic, concealed by my tales of woe.
That terrible song, with the lyrics you know
That you just can't get out of your head.

My life is that song, mournfully played
With that lingering feeling, lost and afraid.
A song that depicts broken hearts, betrayed.
For which your ears have bled.

Write about that song you just can't get out of your head, or adopt this as a metaphor.
Hey, I just met you.
And this is crazy
But here's my number
So call me maybe.

I'll show them respect and I'll do the right thing.
Words of good spirit, I promise I'll bring.
I'll do the good deeds you can no longer do.
I'll be a good person and I'll do it for you.
Today every move I make, I will make for Daniel Barden, age 7, victim of the Sandy Hook shooting. I promise to do the right thing in his name.

Every student got his or her own victim to do the right thing for. Everyone has personally spent a day doing the right thing for each person specifically. We're not letting anybody go unnoticed. I got the name Daniel Barden and I'm writing this just for him.

And the darkness lurks around the corner,
Begging to steal us away from the light.
The shadows call,
The darkness awaits.

If only I were as brave
If only I were as brave

If only I were as blissful
If only I were as blissful

If only I were as blind
If only I were as blind

As the shadow that flies below me
As the bird that flies above me
:-)
