Losing A Whole Year
It's sad that I have to view my life in terms of years that I have lost. In the past three years, I feel that I have lost 2. This one is more recent than the other one though. I made the mistake of choosing the wrong college. This particular LAWY goes out to Katey, the only reason that I survived at all at Ohio Wesleyan. I have one piece of advice for all of you in the process of choosing a college. Choose wisely. It could be the best or worst time of your life. To all of you who like your college--I HATE YOU!!...j/k. You're very lucky!
Losing a whole year
I remember you and me used to spend
The whole goddamned day in class
Losing a whole year
Hiding in the back we'd pass those notes
Cause the profs, they could not teach to save their ass
Losing a whole year
Rich daddy left me at this stupid school
He did not want me to grow up to be a fool
But the school, yet it really did suck
Nothing here is worth a measly buck
Now I don't know where to begin
I want out like I never wanted in
Always skipping a class
I kind of get the feel that I'll never pass
And now I realize that I never heard
One goddamned word I ever said
Losing a whole year
Took my stuff and threw it in a dorm room
When they left me all I could feel was pure gloom
Roommates are a pain in the neck
Those whores made my life a real wreck
It always seemed my voice used to flow
In my room, in my classes, I was just so-so
And we're stuck in this town
Two lonely students and one big frown
And I remember you and me used to spend
The whole goddamned day in class
Losing a whole year
Second semester I fell apart
Threats came from home and it broke my heart
Convinced we've found our place
With all our friends in cyberspace
Back in high school it sounded sweet
But it sours into a routine deceit
Well this school it is a bore
And I don't want to go no more
I remember you and me used to spend
The whole goddamned day in class
Losing a whole year
