Everyday the bell rings
Everyone rushes in
The students run to class
Everyone going to their seats
To start the day

Everyday you
walk down the same halls
Everyday you
go to the same classes
Everyday you
sit at the same lunch table
Everyday you
pass by the same people

Everyone you pass is different
Everyone has their own lives
Everyone has their own responsibilities
Everyone is doing something different

Thinking about
their next class
Thinking about
what they are doing after school
Thinking about
homework
Thinking about
a big game coming up

Some smile in the halls
Some are running to class
Some are juggling papers and
Some just don’t want to be there.

The bell rings and
the students enter school
The bell rings and
class starts
The bell rings and
class ends
The bell rings and
you leave

Everyday the bell rings and
Everyone rushes out
The cars speed away
Everyone going their separate ways
To their own lives
