Clouds are forming
Over school gates

And I’ve been dying to run away

There is conflict but
I can’t stop it

Long nights and darker days

God I feel so afraid
What a mess that I’ve made
[Chorus]

Sin-king

All because you said things

That made me choke

I’m ready

To work it out now

When you’re pushed down

You say it’s just a memory

But I’m finding a way out

After classes

Hide out in bathrooms

Through the corridors

Finding some peace but

It never seems to last too long
D
And when it’s finally gone
Hope that I can be strong
[Chorus]
