Secrets
The halls are abuzz with all the latest stuff.
cnother day is at its end.
There's so much excitement ringing through the sunny air,
Don't know if I should be down over there (or just stay over here).
But if you go down to see what it's all about, may I go along with you?
I just hope it won't be more of what they've come to say
Is the "gotta-hear-it, don't-go-near-em" troubling gossip tree.
I wanna be kind, have them present on my mind,
cnd let them know it will be fine.
It's so hard not to frown when they're putting you down
With false secrets they share.
But I know what is true, you're gonna make it through,
cnd I am always here.
You're as kind as they come, and where the kind are from,
They will always care.
I'm seated in math, listening to them whisper,
Feeling like I'll face their wrath.
They're annoyed when I'm so nice and critique me for my size.
Don't know if I should stay silent for now (or maybe speak somehow).
I'm so glad to have even just a few good friends than a group who doesn't care.
‘Cos when they make it known that they dislike when I'm kind,
I know my friends are there, reminding me it's the right thing to care.
It's no secret now, and I want to make it known,
I will reach out to sing and shout!
So don't give up, no not ever giving in no matter what it is that they say.
It might be hard for now. You'll make it through, and we'll kneel down and pray.
