My head starts spinning, tears well up in my eyes
Frustration blinds me and it’s hard to read between the lines
What does this even mean?What’s the point of all these numbers?
What use is this time constraint to me?

I’ve given up on asking why this all matters
I’ve given up on asking why it’s all so hard
You make it more difficult everyday
What’s the point of this burden anyway?

When will I have to answer twenty math questions
All in fifteen minutes except for in this stupid fucking test?
Why does it matter? Why should I care?

Yeah it’s my future, calc could upgrade my appeal
If you’re sitting on that college board, do you know how I really feel?
I can read between the lines and see the applications
There’s no reason it should be this goddamn hard

When will I have to answer twenty math questions
All in fifteen minutes except for in this stupid fucking test?
Why does it matter? Why should I care?

I love to learn, I want to learn
But this ain’t learning this is hell
Everyday is hell
And I’m learning this from home
You think it’s easy? I say no
It just gets harder ‘cause they think that you should just know
They think that you should just know
They think that you should just know
They think that you should just know
But I don't know
I don't know the fucking answers and it's your job to explain it all to me
So why aren't you explaining it to me?
