Five, four, three, two, one
Months till graduation.
Time to get everything done,
Just forget all the frustration.
College apps go in,
patience hastily wears thin.

Five, four, three, two, one
Weeks till graduation. 
Little to do, but final exams. Don’t worry,
we’re all in the same situation.
No need to stress or be a mourner.
For prom is just around the corner.  

Five, four, three, two, one
Days till graduation,
Nothing to do but sit and wait.
No further obligation.
Pitter, patter, pitter patter, I hope this rain will stop.
If it rains like this tomorrow, my heart will surely drop.

Five, four, three, two, one
Minutes till graduation.
Our time here is finally done.
Start the bittersweet celebration.
All that’s left is memories of what used to be
Our time to reach for things
we cannot see.
