Band class is one of the best
We hardly ever have a test
And although our class is kind of small
We always have quite a ball
Tenor sax is what I play
I could play it all day
We also have clarinet, low brass, and flute
With all those instruments it's always a hoot
We play cool songs from the past
with Mr. Langille it's always a blast!

I stay up late the night before
Checking weather statements once or more
I suddenly and slowly drift off to sleep
With dreams of no school I will keep
It's the next morning and sunlight peeks in through my window
I look outside and see the piles of bright white snow
A few minutes later my mom opens the door a crack
Telling me to get ready for school and to grab my pack
I jump out of bed and quickly check my phone
Sadly, on this day I won't be staying home

Red and blue
Almost complimentary close enough
Fire and water
Red, hot-headed lave, destruction, cautious and aloof
Blue calm, a serene waterfall, never-ending sky
The storm and the calm, both together, paired
Height, skin, voice and tone, unimportant
only the colors that represent them
some metaphorical ying to the others yang
they create a metaphysical purple, the loneliest color

People pick purple penelopes for the one who they love the most
While white widows sit fearfully feeling fault
As the days go by and women say goodbye
I feel as if something is killing me inside
Sad songs say a soft someone sighs in distress
While the one who broke this heart sits silently snickering at the sadness
And that sad someone sings softly somewhere of their picking purple peneolpes.

He took my glasses and it's kinda sad
I never thought that I'd see him this way
He's been at me all day
I've never seen his face this red
I think imma 'bout to be dead
Sneaking around for him not to find it
I've been hiding it under my armpit
He made the worst trade deal in history
If he'll get it, it's a mystery.

The wind howled outside
As she clutched her pillow tight
She don't dare open her eyes
And she held on for dear life

Hot streaks lined her pink cheeks
And the floorboard outside her door creaked
Although she fought to keep them at bay
Her tears would never stay

Her vision was blurred
And her long sleeves were soaked
Her bottom lipped quivered
She felt as if she was going to choke

Never again, she vowed
'Will I ever shed a tear'
But then she opened her eyes
And realized it was all real

My eyes shoot open and my heart slows down
As I realize that nothing I fear is really around

Tim Mcgee bumped his head and was never seen again

Who wants to know
Where he hid his bone
So when he was all alone
He dug up the yard
It was very hard
His owner came and was very mad
That Joe had been very bad
After all that work
He did not find his bone
So he waits until he is once again alone

Water is awesome.
Water is great.
You can even swim in it,

It's unfortunate when you think about it,
some people can't drink it.
People go without it every day.
Sooner or later they won't make it.
You should be blessed,
if you can access it,
it's a daily thing.
Trust me,
Water is loved and

Crying can be because of something sad or joyful.
The last time I really cried was when my dog died.
She was my best friend.
Because we grew up together,
She was more than a dog to me.
I couldn't believe that she died.
It was a few years ago now.
I still think of her every day.
When I go to my grandparents,
I sit on a bench and talk to her.

Water is calm in lakes,
and they are monstrous in oceans
A fisherman rows his boat on soothing current
Shipmen pull ropes and scramble to keep the vessel afloat
The fishing line goes taut as the bait was caught
Monstrous waves out in the ocean brought fear
The fisherman stumbles and fall into the lake
Monstrous waves falls over the ship and into the sea
The man resurfaced, grumbling of the wet
Thunder rumbles in the sky as the last mast sinks.

Everybody dies
If you get hit by a truck, you'll be thankful to come out alive
Don't worry if you cry, but be careful when you lie
One will get you in trouble, by the all-seeing eye
Crying is a part of life, it happens all the time
Don't worry about emotions, they are always in the mind
It's always fine to cry, and it will never be a crime
Crying is really easy, but it's hard to say goodbye

Under the willow

Facing the submerging sun

Let its gleaming rings around it shine

Take off and go on, let'🤬 the road

Take a deep sniff at the little violet

Let the thread-like breeze fly by your upcoming road

She was never so happy that them two had met

So I put on my seat belt so I won't die,
I taxi toward the runway alone,
And I take off without clearance cause I'm bad to the bone,
I just chill in the air while I soar,
And just listen to the sound of the engine roar,
Now it's time to come back down,
And I think about my life while I come around,
The touchdown was easy on the wheels,
And I taxi back to the real world in my flying automobile.

No matter how far I reach to you,
It always seems that you're millions of miles away

No matter how many lives we live,
We never seem to get a good end

We're trapped in an eternal cycle of tragedy,
Falling victim to the music through which our stories are told

We are puppets for the gods,
And for those who look back at us as synthetic beings

And no matter how many times we go around the circle,
It always seems to end the same way: we are seperated

Even so, I will always use my life to protect yours,
If fate chooses to paint you as the villain, I will challenge it

I will retain my hope for just one happy ending,
Because I've been given the gift of someone to share my lives with

And as long as I'm with you,
I can always be happy somehow

Because, we are twins after all, right

These soothing summer nights,
sitting by the beach, a breeze blowing briskly through my salty hair.
Struggling stoking campfires,
the wind coming lightly off the water blowing it out each time.
Staying up late, sneaking out of the camper to play at the park. Thinking our parents didn't know.
Waking up and eating Eggos, asking our parents for change to buy slushies at the store.
Walking around all day, stopping at the arcade for prizes seeing who could get the most tickets.
Beach shuttles, sandy puddles and late night cuddles with our new found friends, dreading when the summer ends, at the campground.
