I'm trapped in this room
Only free when I'm at school
Feel like I'm unwanted and useless
Can't wait to get onto the bus
I evade all the yelling and scolding
Get called dumb and little
When I'm in the classroom though, I become a genius
They try to accept me
How I'm not like their first kid
Feel like I was energy and precious oxygen
Only able to move in one building from 9:15 to 3:50
I'm locked in a box
The key tossed into the nearby river, settling in the soot at the bottom
