Dumb

She gets asked to prom
She’s a pretty girl
Boys get sweaty palms
Girls get insecure
Just as nice to the flutist as the quarterback
The homeless on the corner and the new girl called the whore

She’s sweet yet complicated
Naive yet educated
She’s chill yet dedicated
That’s me, Sheri

I know I’m not perfect
And I don’t pretend to be
It’s not worth it
I don’t waste the energy
I deserve it;
The blame Hannah put on me
I’m not perfect

If I could rewind I’d go back in time
Before the stop sign, before my friend died
Before I made that one fatal mistake
I’d rewind my tape

Still and I can’t sleep
At night when I’m thinking’
It feels like I’m sinking in my conscience
It’s like its constantly haunting me
I can’t decide
If fear keeps me silent or its only popular pride
So I just hide

A PYT turned PFD; for pretty fucking dumb
Like a little girl just sucking on her thumb
Growing up is fun
Until you gotta lay in the bed you made
Guess that’s the price you pay
When you decide to be so..dumb

If I tell, might as well kiss yale goodbye
If I spill mama will probably cry
I confess, make a mess , face trials and why?
It’s already done

And what If it wasn’t really me?
And what if Jeff just had too much to drink
His blood isn’t necessarily on me

But I can’t sleep
At night when I’m thinking’
It feels like I’m sinking in my conscience
It’s like its constantly haunting me
I can’t decide
If fear keeps me silent or its only popular pride
So I just hide

A PYT turned PFD; for pretty fucking dumb
Like a little girl just sucking on her thumb
Growing up is fun
Until you gotta lay in the bed you made
Guess that’s the price you pay
When you decide to be so... dumb
