-Well the next few years were probably the slowest, 

Most uncomfortable years of my life. 

I mean, they tried to make it easy, but they gave up pretty quickly. 

I'm not gonna lie, I didn't make it easy on them either. 

I could just never forgive them, you know. 

But I'm the kind of person who believes that everything happens for a reason. 

And you know I'm kinda glad that I was so miserable, 

Counting down the days until I was eighteen. 

You know, so I could leave. 

'Cause the way it worked for me, there was this one day, 

Where I was in the right place at the right time. 

And now I'm not the type of person to just go get what I want. 

I usually wait for it to casually come to me. 

Something hit me that day like a ton of bricks. 

I know it sounds cheesy, but I fell in love… 

And that's what kept me there for the next few years. 

I would have ran away if it wasn't for her.



Well it was just the same as anyday. 

I was, looking to run far from the school. 

And I was at the door, ready to go,

When I heard some books hit the floor. 

So then I stopped, jaw dropped. 

I said, "This must be love." 

'Cause when I pulled myself together, 

You were already gone. 

I screamed, "Wait a minute!" 

Listened to the voice in my head. 

It said,”Kid you better run 'cause she's getting away with it.” 



-So I chased after her running down the hallways. 

When I caught up to her, I grabbed her arm, 

And I actually just stood there, frozen, didn't know what to say. 

But, I think she kinda felt the same thing so it worked out. 

I felt like I finally had a reason to be happy, you know.

She would be the first person in my life who was completely honest with me.

I had a reason to trust. 

When I was with her, it just felt like,

My problems with my parents didn't seem so big anymore. 

Oh well, I just didn't care about them.
