High school once it's own world
A self contained universe
Everyone with a common goal
and each person plays a role
The jock, nerd, goth or just plain weirdo
But not anymore though
The high school bubble has been
prodded, pierced and popped by outside pressure
High school stress was once a pimple
oh if only life was still that simple
With so much expected all work must be perfected
All free time must be rationed unable to explore passions
Carefree life and imagination substituted by college preparation
