I have nothing left to say
The robots have all won
My tiny little human brain was fried out by the sun
I didn't pass their silly tests, I wasn't good enough
I took too long to fill in an answer so I'm all out of luck
As much as I fight for what I love, the budgets will not pass
Most of the older generation doesn't want it to come out of their tax
John Green, for all his flaws, finally said it best
"Even though I don't have a kid in school, I pay my taxes because I don't want to live in a country of idiots"
His point resounds through old schools, and it echoes in my chest
It's almost been another year and math and science have won
The arts are drawing More kids, though, because performing is more fun
That's not to say, however, that we don't need those subjects too
It's just to say they should be weighted the same because they'll all end up benefitting you
A little boy stole my hat, so now my head is cold
I'm facing the scary reality, that people will grow old
My hat was a gift from grandmother, given when I was three
She's since passed on and there's one less person around my Christmas tree
My best friends got mauled this year, hit by all of the bad luck
I got a spoonful myself with the taste of disastrous love
I found out that people are hurricanes, and they won't clean up their mess
I found out that just because they mean a lot, they shouldn't rent space in your head
The power I've needed and wanted to get them out is there
I just need to start moving on from the fact that they simply didn't care
It's taken me awhile to get to the point I'm at now
The point where seeing him out in public doesn't knock me to the ground
I'm helping a very good friend of mine get through the same as me
And as awful as he's been to her, she loves him more than me
She can't get him out of her brain, her heart will not let go
It doesn't matter that he was terrible, her fingers type 'hello'
2016 was a dumpster fire we'll leave blazing in the past
And someday soon we'll gather around and we'll all just simply laugh
New leaders are coming in next year with new ideas in store
I pray that we live through the rest of this year
And here's to many more
